We will be close to delivering the targets we have set for 2032 for energy efficiency, low carbon heat and transport. Our electricity and gas networks will be fundamental to this progress across Scotland and there will be new ways of designing, operating and regulating them to ensure that they are used efficiently. The policy context The energy transition must also be inclusive – all parts of society should be able to benefit. The Scotland’s Energy Strategy sets out a vision options we identify must make sense no matter for the energy system in Scotland until 2050 – what pathways to decarbonisation might targeting a sustainable and low carbon energy emerge as the best. Improving the efficiency of system that works for all consumers. -

Today, the world mainly runs on fossil fuels. We need to transform the way we power the world; from black to green energy. At Ørsted, our vision is a world that runs entirely on green energy. We want to revolutionise the way we power people by developing green, independent and economically viable energy systems. By doing so, we create value for the societies that we are a part of and for all our stakeholders. The way we work is based on five guiding principles: Integrity Results We are open and trustworthy We set the bar high, take ownership and uphold high ethical standards and get the right things done Passion Safety We are passionate about what We never compromise on health and safety we do and proud of what we achieve standards Team Integrity is our root.
