Press Release: Nel management update

"Bjørn has played a crucial role in Nel since he joined in 2014, ahead of the listing of the company on the Oslo Stock Exchange, by being instrumental in the early growth and development of the company. In addition, he has played an important role in bringing Nel to the center of the local and international hydrogen scene," says Jon André Løkke, CEO of Nel.
Bjørn Simonsen has been with Nel since September 2014, and has served as VP Market Development and Public Relations as well as VP Investor Relations & Corporate Communication.

“It has been a pleasure to work with Bjørn throughout the years, and through his important role he has been a strong supporter and communicator of both Nel and the hydrogen space. While we are sad to see him leave, we are encouraged that he’s joining our former legacy investor that took Nel public back in 2014, and as such were instrumental to Nel’s early success. With the focus of Saga Pure in mind, we may also engage in projects together going forward, and we wish Bjørn all the best for his future endeavors,” Løkke concludes.
