Corpoelec is a fully integrated state power corporation of Venezuela. It was created in 2007 by merging ten state-owned and six private-owned power companies.[1][2] The former president of the company, from 2015 to 2019, was Luis Motta Domínguez, the Minister of Electricity and general of the Venezuelan Army.[3] He was dismissed by President Nicolás Maduro in April 2019, following a series of blackouts that occurred in March 2019.
