For so long part of the Norse Empire, the islands and islanders have retained much of their traditional heritage, seen in the unique craftwork, the music which fills local pubs and halls, and in the fire festival of Up Helly Aa which celebrates the Viking legacy.

Shetland’s most important industries are fishing, aquaculture, agriculture and oil and gas, though many are also employed in construction and transport. Economic activity and wages are high in Shetland, but living costs are also higher than the Scottish average and some employers struggle to fill positions. However, wages are lower in Yell, Unst and Fetlar and living costs are higher than the Shetland average. The economic impact of the proposed Energy Isles Wind Farm has been assessed based on the experience of what has happened at other onshore wind farms, including case studies of other onshore wind developments in Scotland, and analysis of the local economy. The economic analysis indicates that during the development and construction phase the proposed development is expected to contribute: • £25.5 million and 223 job years in Shetland; and • £87.9 million and 795 job years in Scotland (figures referring to Scotland include the impact arising in Shetland) During each year the operation and maintenance of the proposed development could contribute: • £0.6 million and 5 jobs in Shetland; and • £1.4 million and 12 jobs in Scotland.

In the UK in 2018 the industry was worth more than £16 bn (annual growth exceeds three per cent) and comprised around 1,000 companies and organisations (UK Government, 2018).
