In September 2024, the Scottish Government published its Green Industrial Strategy with the single aim of helping Scotland realise the economic benefits of a transition to net zero. The paper identifies five key areas where Scotland is “well placed to develop internationally competitive economic clusters”. Whilst they are certainly areas of opportunity, it will require vast transformation and cross-sectoral collaboration to reach the ambitious goals.
This new half-day conference, paired with another later in the year, will explore wind and solar as renewable energy options in Scotland by addressing the financial and storage challenges, the importance of a Just Transition, and through highlighting the benefits of community engagement.
