SSEN Future Energy Scenarios

SSEN Transmission has today (Feb 25) published an updated North of Scotland Future Energy Scenarios report outlining potential electricity generation and demand necessary to meet UK and Scottish net-zero emissions targets.

Responding, Morag Watson, Director of Policy at Scottish Renewables, said: 

"The north of Scotland is already at the heart of our renewable energy story, with its winds, rainfall, long daylight hours, forestry resource and tides all providing the energy we need to run our lives sustainably.

"This report shows the potential for that contribution to increase in future, bringing with it the economic and environmental benefits Scotland will need if it is to meet its net-zero target."
