AREG NEWS: AREG commentary on the General Election announcement

Jean Morrison, chair of Aberdeen Renewable Energy Group (AREG), has commented on the announcement that the UK General Election will take place on Thursday, 4 July.

She said: “With the election date now on the horizon, we are calling on all parties to focus on a joined-up approach to the energy transition, with policies that place emphasis on job security and increasing investment in the renewables sector.

“Whoever governs the UK will have an important role to play in ensuring we achieve our decarbonisation ambitions, building on the country’s decades of experience in the energy sector. It is imperative that we install critical new infrastructure and grow our skills and capabilities to meet net zero targets, accelerate economic growth and further position the UK as an energy transition leader.”
