On Monday, FirstEnergy and Constellation both announced executive appointments affecting their nuclear fleets.
At FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Co. (FENOC), Peter P. Sena III was promoted from chief operating officer to chief nuclear officer, with Sam Belcher stepping in as the company's new COO Dec. 10.
Sena began his FENOC career in 1996 as an assistant shift supervisor at Beaver Valley, where he worked his way up to site vice president in 2007. He was made a senior FENOC vice president in 2010 and given the COO position in 2011.
Belcher comes to his new position from Constellation Energy Nuclear Group (CENG) where he was senior vice president of site operations.
That utility announced its own nuclear leadership changes Monday, with Calvert Cliffs General Manager Christopher Costanzo appointed as site vice president at Nine Mile Point. Mark Flaherty will replace him as general manager at Calvert Cliffs.
