Alstom honors journalists

The Alstom Journalism Prize will be awarded this year on May 3 in Baden. Since 2002, the transport and energy giant Alstom has been recognizing exceptional journalistic achievements and, as every year, the industrial company Alstom will be showering journalists with prizes worth a total of 25,000. The awards recognize exceptional achievements and contributions that deal with the economic, social, ecological, technical or scientific significance of energy and its generation, transmission and use. An independent jury consisting of personalities from journalism, science, business and politics decides on the winners. The main criteria are the quality and originality of the journalistic contributions.
The French group employs 60,000 people in 70 countries worldwide, including 4,000 in Switzerland. In Switzerland, Alstom is represented by the Power Systems, Power Service and Transport sectors, and Alstom's energy sectors are also managed worldwide from Switzerland.
