| Green Jobs Boost for the Scottish economy |
Addressing a Scottish Government public discussion event in Dornoch, First Minister Alex Salmond stated that “more than 5,000 jobs could be created through the development of three regional offshore energy manufacturing sites built around key port locations”.
The news came on the back of a publication - Stage 2 of the National Renewables Infrastructure Plan (N-RIP) - by Scottish Enterprise and Highlands & Islands Enterprise.
Stage 1 of the N-RIP identified the following as possible locations: Dundee, Nigg, Energy Park at Methil, Hunterston, Aberdeen, Arnish, Campbeltown/Machrihanish, Ardersier, Kishorn and Peterhead.
The First Minister said that the project could generate “around £300m each year for Scotland’s economy”.
