Once again, the eyes of the world are on the latest COP event. The location may have moved from Scotland to Egypt, but many of the headlines to come out of the 2022 UN Climate Change Conference are focusing on how to address the current climate crisis, in particular accelerating the development of renewable energy sources. But what are the opportunities for businesses closer to home?
from our Aberdeen office explains how the energy producing capability of Aberdeenshire seems to rise ever higher in The Scotsman today.
With decades of production of oil and gas, and more recent efforts greatly increasing infrastructure for renewable energy sources, Aberdeen is well-established as the energy capital of Europe. From production of hydrocarbons, onshore and offshore windfarms, biomass plants, and wave and tidal energy production sources, the ceiling for the energy producing capability of Aberdeenshire seems to rise ever higher.
Now, given the recent searches by a north-east mining company for cobalt, nickel and copper within surrounding farmlands, it appears Aberdeenshire has even more to offer with respect to energy production.
