The Royal Society of Edinburgh (RSE) is undertaking an Inquiry into Scotland’s Energy Future which aims to contribute to the important debate around Scotland’s energy supply, demand and use; a debate that needs to recognise our moral and environmental responsibilities. The Inquiry will also look to inform the policy and decision-making at a Scottish, UK and international level that will ultimately decide whether the path Scotland chooses to follow provides the resources needed at acceptable financial, moral, ethical and environmental costs.
As an important part of the RSE’s major Energy Inquiry, members of the Inquiry Committee will be travelling across Scotland to engage with different communities. Joining this evidence gathering session will be Prof Gareth Harrison (University of Edinburgh), Prof Gavin Little (University of Stirling), Prof Karen Turner (University of Strathclyde) and Prof Jan Webb (University of Edinburgh).
The upcoming evidence gathering session will:
- Explain the background to the Inquiry, why it is taking place, and what it hopes to achieve;
- Look to gather the views and experiences of communities on energy issues affecting them on both a local and national level;
- Provide the opportunity for attendees to share their thoughts on the 15 questions posed by the Inquiry in its consultation;
- Ultimately help inform the final report published by the RSE on Scotland’s Energy Future.
