Great British Energy: Scotland
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps his Department is taking to help ensure that GB Energy creates 1,000 jobs in North East Scotland within a reasonable timeframe.
Answered by Michael Shanks
We have said that Great British Energy (GBE) will support thousands of jobs. This includes opportunities at its Aberdeen Headquarters, and through its activities and investments across the country.
As an operationally independent company, GBE will be responsible for its own workforce planning, to ensure the right skills, across the right locations, that enable GBE to deliver maximum impact for the whole of the UK.
The Department continues to work quickly to set GBE up for success and ensure the British people feel the benefits, including new jobs.
