Energy Supply: Scotland
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, whether his Department plans to take steps to ensure that energy transmission projects in Scotland prioritise community engagement.
Answered by Ian Murray
My Ministerial colleagues and I continue to engage regularly with all parts of the energy sector in Scotland.
The UK Government is committed to delivering our Clean Power 2030 Action Plan, which will require investment in and expansion of our transmission network. We will work with all interested parties to deliver our plan, which will guarantee energy security, lower bills, and good jobs across the UK.
