Additionally, a lot of energy is required to treat water to meet regulatory standards, despite the Tgenerally high raw water quality in Scotland. In order to reduce power costs for water supply and treatment by 10%, and in doing so help keep down Scottish Water’s operating expenditure, the company is progressing with a £20 million+ hydropower generating scheme that will use the existing water supply pipes to generate electricity for the utility’s own assets.

Conclusion 34 Appendix 1 35 3 1. Introduction and Background In 2016 the Scottish Government announced its intention to support the development of 50,000 new affordable homes in Scotland by March 2021. Meeting this target is ambitious and will require increased investment by the Scottish Government, Local Authorities and Registered Social Landlords and a step change in the pace of housebuilding in order that it is achieved. The delivery of more affordable housing remains a high priority for Midlothian Council which begun a development programme of 1,000 new council houses in Midlothian. The purpose of Midlothian’s Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP) is to set out strategic investment priorities for affordable housing over a 5 year period to achieve the outcomes set out in the Local Housing Strategy (LHS). The SHIP is also the key document for identifying strategic housing projects towards meeting the Government’s 50,000 affordable housing target. This document is updated annually to present up to date information on affordable housing investment plans.
