SNP leadership candidate Ash Regan emphasised her commitment to net zero during a visit University of Edinburgh’s FloWave Ocean Research Facility in Edinburgh.
Launched in 2014, FloWave Ocean Energy Research Facility is the first circular combined wave and current facility in the world, in which the team carry out research and development with the private sector and wider academia across offshore, wave and tidal energy.
In 2020 97% of Scotland’s electricity output was supplied by renewable energy, which highlights the seismic potential of Scotland’s energy resources.
As First Minister Ash Regan will ensure that the Scottish Government works alongside industry, unions and communities to optimise existing energy infrastructure and champion innovation onshore and across Scottish waters.
Ash Regan said:
“Supporting development from laboratory to ocean, University of Edinburgh’s innovative FloWave facility is a leading example of how Scotland’s energy potential can be utilised.
