flag Scotland’s Energy Secretary warns northeast risks economic harm without urgent green transition action.

flag Scotland’s Energy Secretary Gillian Martin warned the northeast region faces a "dangerously" high risk of missing a just transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy, citing long-term economic damage from past deindustrialization in areas like Clydebank, Hamilton, and Motherwell. flag Speaking at an SNP conference event in Aberdeen, she stressed the region’s existing skilled workforce and industrial base could support a green energy shift but cautioned that without decisive government action, workers may leave for other countries. flag Martin vowed to prevent another generation from facing the lasting economic decline seen after the collapse of heavy industries in the 1970s and 1980s.
