Climate Change
• We all know it’s happening• Significant effect on energy
policy• Move to low carbon
economy• New thinking required
– More renewables– More decentralisation– Greater efficiency and energy

• Abundant natural resource
• Hydro
• Wave & tidal
• Biomass
• Solar and other
Scottish Renewable Resource
Large Potential Contribution to Targets
Guess which is the best country in Europe for generating wind power?

• Scottish companies pioneering new technologies
• Full-scale projects urgently needed
• ScottishPower, OPD and Amec working together
• Welcome Executive support
World Class Marine Resource
Scotland has a one-off opportunity to lead the World

• 18% from renewable resource by 2010
• Will be met by existing hydro and near term projects
• 40% target by 2020
• Bigger challenge but can be met
• Scotland will be a world leader in renewable energy
Scotland’s Renewable Targets
![Page 9: Keith Anderson Renewables and Major Projects Director Delivering Scotland’s Renewable Energy – European Perspective](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649e635503460f94b5f59f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Met by sensible mix of large and small projects
• For example- 10 large, 100-500 MW- 20 small, 10-100 MW
• Landscape will not be dominated - 330 km2, 0.2%
• Investment of £2-3 billion• Annual benefit of £200m+

• Need to keep the lights on
• Next generation of base load to be chosen
• Renewable power will augment
• Wind power is predictable
• Always blowing somewhere!
Security of Supply

• Sustainable approach• Early consultation• Sensitive design• Benefit to economy and
community• Black Law example
- Reinstated coal workings- Habitats to encourage
wildlife- £100k annual community

Challenges to UK Renewables Delivery
• Policy- Investors need stability
• Planning- Significant delays, Local Authorities reluctant
- Need to overcome NIMBY challenge and maintain momentum
- Mindful that policy review could slow progress further
• Transmission- Upgrades essential to meet targets
- Timescales critical

Is 12% Achievable in Europe?
• European targets only achievable if:• We are allowed to capitalise on our natural resources• Policies are flexible
• Freedom to choose appropriate incentive
mechanisms• Incentives are non-locational• Technology blind
• Infrastructure (grid) investments sufficient
![Page 15: Keith Anderson Renewables and Major Projects Director Delivering Scotland’s Renewable Energy – European Perspective](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649e635503460f94b5f59f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What Else Do We Have To Do?• Promote social attitudes to
renewable energy
– And energy conservation / efficiency
• Persuade on contribution to security of supply
– Grid need not be an issue
– Less dependence on imported fuels
• Embrace development of new technologies

Summary
• Scotland has an abundance of renewable resource• Needs to be capitalised• Impediments removed• Significant contribution to UK and European targets• All achievable if momentum improved
