Report on impact of offshore wind on the Scottish economy
Michael Moore comments on the Scottish Renewables and Scottish Enterprise - New report on impact of offshore wind on the Scottish economy
The Secretary of State Michael Moore said:
“I welcome this useful report which helps show the vast opportunities for renewable energy which exist in Scotland. It does not shirk away from the fact there is a lot of work still to come, in both reserved areas and devolved areas such as skills. The UK Government has clearly said it is working towards a secure, safe and low-carbon energy future and renewables in Scotland are an important element of that journey. We cannot afford to see our considerable resource in this area go to waste and I am determined to work across government and industry to look at ways of helping the renewables sector meet its potential.”
