Maritime industry supplier Norwegian Electric Systems has appointed Siv Remøy-Vangen as its new managing director.
Siv Remøy-Vangen joins NES from a position as CEO of Maritime Bergen, a regional industry association for companies in ocean-based industries.
Remøy-Vangen is a highly experienced maritime professional. She has several years experience as vice president of project management for TTS Offshore Solutions, and as charterer and shipbroker at Odfjell Tankers and RS Platou. She is chairperson of Ocean Hyway Cluster, Norway's leading network for maritime hydrogen.

She has a solid understanding of new technology and the role it can play in enabling the maritime industry to operate more cost-efficiently and with smaller environmental footprint. The board is delighted that she has accepted the role as managing director of NES, says Gunnar Larsen, chairman of the NES board of directors and CEO of NES’ parent company HAV Group ASA.
Remøy-Vangen will start in her new role on 1 January 2023.

Its innovative products contribute towards decarbonizing and making the global vessel fleet more efficient. The company will make a real difference and help the shipping industry reach its emission targets. With its presence in Western Norway, NES is also a company where I can continue the work to strengthen the Norwegian maritime cluster’s competitive advantage. I am grateful the trust placed in me and the opportunity to further develop NES together with my highly competent new colleagues, says Siv Remøy-Vangen.
