Jardine responds to GB Energy Aberdeen announcement

Responding to the confirmation that GB Energy will be headquartered in Aberdeen, Liberal Democrat Scottish affairs spokesperson Christine Jardine MP said:

“I welcome the announcement that GB Energy is to be based in Aberdeen. The north of Scotland will play a key role in the just transition, so it is only right that it is also the site for this kind of organisation.

“Of course, we are still in the early days, so it remains to be seen how effective GB Energy will be in driving investment and cutting energy bills.

“Amidst a cost-of-living crisis and climate crisis, people across the country need the UK Government and GB Energy to put their foot to the floor.”
