Professor Rosalind Archer Head of the Engineering Science Department at the University of Auckland in New Zealand is the finalist for Energy Engineer of the Year at the prestigious Deloitte Energy Excellence Awards.
The prestigious Deloitte Energy Excellence Awards are under way in New Zealand and one of the finalists is Professor Rosalind Archer of the University of Auckland.
She has been nominated and is the finalist for the Energy Engineer of the Year. Professor Rosalind Archer is the Head of the Engineering Science Department at the university and holds the Mighty River Power Chair in Geothermal Reservoir Engineering.
ThinkGeoEnergy had the chance to take a brief video interview with Rosalind Archer at the World Geothermal Congress in Melbourne, Australia last year.
The awards, now in their seventh year, are being held in Auckland, at SKYCITY, on August 10, to recognise achievement and excellence across the New Zealand energy sector.
Chairman of the judging panel, Toby Stevenson, says that the calibre of entries was extremely high and the finalist selection process had been a tough one; in four of the categories the judges named four finalists.
“The record number of entries received this year is a true testament to the excellent stories to be told about companies and individuals working in energy-related activity in New Zealand”, he says. “We appreciate the effort that goes into preparing an entry and wish to thank all those that entered this year. We are delighted to announce finalists today and wish them well on the night.”
