Greece nominates senior executive Panagiotakis to head power utility PPC
ATHENS, April 1 (Reuters) - Greece has nominated senior executive Emmanouil Panagiotakis as chairman and chief executive of its dominant power utility PPC, Greece's energy ministry said on Wednesday.
Panagiotakis, a mechanical engineer, will replace Arthouros Zervos who resigned last month after a judicial council decided that he should stand trial for breach of trust.
Greece's leftist government halted the privatisation of PPC, a condition under the country's EU/IMF bailout, soon after taking power in January, arguing it should remain in state hands. PPC is 51 percent state-owned.
