Scotland has a natural geographic advantage that leaves us well-placed to take a global lead renewable technologies, with renewable electricity already generating the equivalent of 90% of Scotland’s energy consumption.

The Scottish and UK Governments have recently sought to build on this, with the Prime Minister’s 10 point plan setting a target of quadrupling our off-shore wind capacity to 40GW by 2030 – enough to power every home in the UK  - and the Scottish Government pledging to invest £1.6bn over the next Parliament towards expanding and accelerating heat and energy efficiency programmes.

As we pursue a just and Green Recovery from the pandemic, and in the year Scotland hosts the world at COP2,  join Holyrood's Climate Emergency Series: Renewables Summit, to hear how we begin the hard work of delivering on the objectives that we have set for ourselves and recover from the worsening climate crisis.
