The bankruptcy of Morrow, a Norwegian battery manufacturer, is prompting urgent calls for government action. The Socialist Left Party (SV) mayor is directly appealing to the Prime Minister to prevent the company’s assets and technology from being sold to foreign interests. Morrow’s collapse raises concerns about Norway’s ambitions in the battery production sector and potential job losses. The mayor emphasizes the embarrassing nature of the situation, suggesting a failure in supporting a key domestic industry. The request focuses on securing the future of the factory and preventing a loss of valuable expertise to international competitors. The situation highlights the challenges faced by new industries attempting to establish themselves in Europe. Further details regarding the reasons for Morrow’s bankruptcy are expected to emerge in the coming days.
