Becquerel Prize

The Becquerel Prize is a prize to honour scientific, technical or managerial merits in the field of photovoltaic solar energy. It has been established in 1989 by the European Commission at the occasion of the 150th anniversary of a groundbreaking experiment by Alexandre-Edmond Becquerel, also known as Edmond Becquerel, in which he discovered the photovoltaic effect. The prize is awarded to a single individual who is recognized for continuous achievements in the field of photovoltaic energy conversion. The prize is primarily a European award but not restricted exclusively to European citizens. The prize is granted by the European Commission. The Becquerel Prize Committee selects the individual to be honoured.[1] The prize is awarded periodically at the annual European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference.[2][3]

Prize winners

The Becquerel Prize Committee lists the following winners:[4]

gollark: This is clearly fake, our server rooms are just solid cubes of computronium nowadays, none of that "discrete servers" or "wiring" nonsense.
gollark: That was my initial idea, yes.
gollark: <@!293066066605768714> Is this going to run on an Intel CPU with power monitoring subsystems? Asking for a friend.
gollark: Yes, and is old, thus [REDACTED].
gollark: Hmm, that's old then.
