Renewables

Renewable technologies use natural energy to make electricity. Fuel sources include wind, wave, marine, hydro and solar.

The UK is well placed to take advantage of wind power, with some of the best conditions in Europe and high average wind speeds. Both onshore and offshore wind farms are an important part of where the UK sources its energy.

97.4% of Scotland’s gross electricity consumption (total generation minus net exports) came from renewables. Today, renewable energy is a world-leading industry, growing at breakneck speed. The global renewable energy market is forecast to generate revenue of $1.5 trillion (£1.1 trn) by 2025.
