Refineries: Grangemouth
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what assessment his Department has made of the potential impact of the closure of the Grangemouth refinery on fuel supply.
Answered by Michael Shanks
Grangemouth refinery was converted into an import terminal in April 2025 and supply in Scotland and the UK have continued as normal. The UK remains well supplied through a combination of domestic production and imports. The UK continues to have sufficient operational refining capacity, including at Fawley, Humber, Pembroke and Stanlow. There has been no disruption to fuel supply, and the Government continues to monitor supply resilience closely.
