We have launched an inquiry into renewable energy in Scotland just months before the world descends on Glasgow for November’s COP26 UN Climate Conference.
This inquiry is likely to examine:
- how ‘net-zero’ targets can be met by development of renewable energy in Scotland;
- the technologies that would best serve Scotland and how challenges in their development can be overcome;
- employment potential of renewables in Scotland and how a ‘just transition’ for oil and gas workers can be achieved; and
- how the UK and Scottish Governments can work together to reach their green goals.
