BALTIMORE – Nov. 11, 2008 – Constellation Energy (NYSE: CEG) today announced that Kathleen W. Hyle, currently senior vice president, Constellation Energy, will assume the role of chief operating officer of the company’s overall commercial business and lead its new management team.

 

Hyle’s appointment is effective immediately and she will report directly to Mayo A. Shattuck III, chairman, president and chief executive officer.

 

Since the announcement of our merger with MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company, we have been working diligently to de-risk our portfolio and reshape our businesses to address a radically changed environment,” said Shattuck. “As we continue to execute on these strategic objectives, it is imperative to appoint a leadership team that embraces our vision, is agile in capitalizing on new strategies, and is committed to achieving our collective goals. I am personally taking a leadership role in helping shape and drive strategy for our commercial activities and I’m confident that Kathi and her team will accomplish our transformation objectives with great skill and diligence.”
