OFFSHORE ELECTRICITY TRANSMISSION NETWORK
That this House welcomes the progression of plans to build an offshore electricity transmission network linking Scotland, Northern Ireland and Ireland; recognises that this grid will maximise the use of renewable energy from wind and wave power in Scotland; notes that harnessing Scotland's green wind and marine energy potential has the potential to create thousands of green jobs across the country; further recognises that Scotland is taking a global lead on the fight against climate change and is working hard with its partners across Europe, and the world, to develop green economic opportunities for Scotland and a sustainable future for the planet.
