SCOTLAND’S RENEWABLE FUTURE
We asked – and you’re still telling us – about your Big 3 Scottish renewable energy wishes in the run-up to Scotland’s Renewable Future conference.
Here are some more of your replies.
A broad based world class low carbon technology manufacturing industry please
Scotland is missing out by not having a large wind-turbine builder. Is this the missing link at Scottish Enterprise?
We cannot guarantee to grant your 3 wishes, but if you come along to SCOTLAND’S RENEWABLE FUTURE conference next month (see below for full programme, venue and booking details) we can guarantee that (at least) some of y/our new Holyrood MPs (which look likely to include up to 10 new Green Scottish MSPs) will listen to y/our wishes. These also include:
That the Scottish government outlines a clear roadmap for support (e.g. FITs or otherwise) for renewables IN SCOTLAND
Geothermal
An additional interconnector for Orkney
An update of the grid to allow further renewables to be developed in the future
Develop the energy storage industry in Scotland.
Reinstate solar FIT for Scotland
We’ll be publishing more of YOUR Scottish renewable energy wishes in the near future. And we’ll also include a selection in the Question Time debate, as well as sending a report from Scotland’s Renewable Future to the new Scottish Energy Minister and also to Amber Rudd, British Energy Minister (who was invited to attend the conference)
Scotland’s Renewable Future conference is so-named because it’ll be doing just that:
* Focussing on the future at home, and abroad
* Focussing on the future in wind, wave, tidal and solar energies
* Focussing on the ‘big picture’ things that we need to do to de-carbonise heat and transport – the ‘next big things’
Which is why the invited speakers have been selected for their ability to foresee (if not actually fore-cast) the future.
The program is still being finalised but you can see sessions and confirmed speakers so far, below.
If you wish to be part of SCOTLAND’S RENEWABLE FUTURE – and to receive updates on confirmed speakers – consider following us on Twitter or joining our mailing list.
Meanwhile, if you had three ‘magic wishes’ for #renewableenergy, what would they be? Let us know: http://ow.ly/ZJqiz
Let us know what your top three ‘wishes’ are for Scotland’s Renewable Future. We shall feed these into the ‘Question Time’ debate with Holyrood and/or Westminster MPs at the conference.
