Report summary
As COP26 comes to Glasgow it brings into sharp focus Scotland's ambitious 2045 net zero target. Industrial emissions account for about 10% of Scotland's total emissions and the Firth of Forth area is Scotland's largest industrial area. This paper makes the case for a Firth of Forth Net Zero Hub to: • play a pivotal role in the UK's energy transition; • leverage the rich skills base; • generate employment; • drive economic growth; and • be part of the net zero solution for Scotland.
