Article summary

The Scottish Government has launched the Green Industrial Strategy (GIS) as part of the Programme for Government 2024-25, aiming to realise the economic opportunities and benefits of the global transition to net zero. It sets out key priorities, including maximising Scotland’s wind economy, developing a self-sustaining carbon capture, utilisation and storage sector, supporting green economy professional and financial services that have global reach, growing the hydrogen sector, and establishing Scotland as a competitive centre for clean Energy Intensive Industries of the future. To support the delivery of the GIS, the Scottish Government has also published an evidence paper on the offshore wind focus, providing an overview of the Government's strategic assessment of the market opportunities and next steps that will underpin the public sector’s collective investment decisions in offshore wind.
