On the occasion of Dr. Alf Bjørseth’s 75th birthday in November 2016, Scatec Innovation introduced “Alf Bjørseth’s Inspirasjonspris” (Inspiration Award) with the objective to inspire young scientist at the start of a career within renewable energy and advanced materials.
Dr. Alf Bjørseth has established a number of vital businesses within the fields of renewable energy and advanced materials. Common for these companies is a technological foundation firmly rooted in research and technology. Alf himself uses every opportunity to communicate the importance of expert knowledge, often with his own Dr. Phil. in chemistry as example.
For these reasons, Alf is an important role model and source of inspiration for future generations’ young scientists. By instating Alf Bjørseth’s «Inspirasjonspris» (Inspiration award), Scatec Innovation wishes to honor its founder and inspire young scientist on the threshold of a career within renewable energy and advanced materials.
