Official Nomination of the Committee on the Future of Norwegian Energy Policy (Energiutvalget)


On 13 December 2010, the Norwegian Ministry for Petroleum and Energy announced the forthcoming establishment of an Energy Committee (Energiutvalget) that would draft proposals as regards Norway's energy policy towards 2030 and 2050 (see previous post with detailed mandate). On 4 March 2011, the King has officially nominated the Committee and its members. A shorter text of the mandate is available here (builds on the previous mandate description and will not be repeated. See previous post). The list of the 15 members of the committee is available here (including short bio). The Energy Committee must submit its assessment to the ministry by 1 March 2012.
