Clean Energy: Scotland

Asked by Joe MorrisLabourScotland OfficeTabled Answered 9 July 2025UIN 905056

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, what discussions he has had with Cabinet colleagues on the potential impact of the Government’s clean energy mission on Scotland.

Answered by Kirsty McNeill

The Secretary of State and I are proud proponents of the government’s Clean Energy mission and this government is taking real action - whether that’s providing the £8.5 billion of funding for Aberdeen-based GB Energy, supporting our world leading workforce through the Energy Skills Passport, or providing £200 million towards delivering the Acorn project - crucial in our bid to decarbonise Scotland’s future.

That’s mission delivery in action.
