An investment fund created to establish diversification across the north-east of Scotland has offshore wind “firmly in its sights”, according to Sir Ian Wood.
The chairman of Opportunity North East (ONE) announced last night at the organisation’s annual general meeting that it was targeting the energy transition to safeguard the region’s economic future.
He said One will look to put more money and focus into building up and supporting the north-east supply chain as the North Sea oil and gas sector depletes and transitions to cleaner energy.
