Question

To ask the Scottish Government what timescales have been agreed for the delivery of Energy Transition Fund projects.


Answer

The Energy Transition Fund (ETF) is a five year programme beginning in 2020. Some of the projects benefitting from this new investment will complete within that 5 year time scale. Larger projects with multiple phases of development may complete over a longer period.

The ETF is intended to accelerate development of project proposals brought forward by partners in the energy sector, ensuring that the economic benefits are felt as soon as possible as part of a green recovery.
