LABOUR'S proposals for GB Energy remain unclear and will not tackle “unfairness” in the energy market, Scottish Deputy First Minister Kate Forbes has said.Keir Starmer’s party has pledged to create a publicly-owned energy company headquartered in Scotland, saying this would deliver 69,000 jobs and make Scotland a global leader in clean energy.

“The problem for developers and for government is actually having the clarity on what GB Energy will mean. Forbes was also asked about the proposed wind farm off the coast of East Lothian called Berwick Bank, which would have up to 307 turbines.SSE has said it missed a deadline for a UK Government scheme to supply the National Grid due to Scottish ministers not granting approval for Berwick Bank.

“Those turbines will generate energy that will produce profits and the fruits of that profit won’t got to Norway, won’t go to Denmark to fund their public services – the fruits of that profit will stay here in Scotland and the UK.”We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
