A steady stream of shipowner executives is feeding Norway's green start-ups and state-owned enterprises.
As a result, the top management of the country's renewable-energy industry features familiar names, with technical and financial talent having made the switch from shipping to green fuels, wind technology and batteries.
In some cases, the connection is clear, as former shipping folk pitch green projects to their older colleagues, or when shipowners who are founders of or shareholders in renewables projects second staff to green subsidiaries.
