Responding to the launch of the Scottish Government’s Green Investment Portfolio, which will will provide access to large scale investment to support renewable energy projects;


Claire Mack, Chief Executive at Scottish Renewables, said: “While we have made great strides towards our world-leading renewable energy targets, access to finance is a major issue for Scotland’s renewable energy sector.

“The uneven playing field created by the UK Government for onshore wind and solar PV, alongside the scale of offshore wind projects, means that significant sums are required to help us continue to support thousands of jobs and displace millions of tonnes of emissions each year.

“Today’s announcement is another piece of evidence that Scotland’s renewable energy sector is open for business.”
