Transport is a vital feature of the Scottish Government’s focus on increasing sustainable economic growth and this is recognised with the continued investment of over £1.9 billion in transport projects and services over the year. Transport underpins how Scotland works and performs and through the development of transport projects and policies we support our businesses, communities and services, connecting people across Scotland and beyond. We support the Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Infrastructure, Investment and Cities, Nicola Sturgeon MSP, and the Minister for Transport and Veterans, Keith Brown MSP, in achieving the Scottish Government’s Purpose. This review will cover a selection of our achievements starting with progress on our roads with the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route moving to procurement and construction phase, and details of the replacement Chartershall bridge, near Stirling. In rail, work continues on electrification of the network and moving with the times, over 50 trains were fitted with Wi-Fi enabling equipment. The first new hybrid vessel, MV Hallaig, was launched and Scottish Canals was established as a self-standing organisation. We continue to support the adoption of electric vehicles and work with stakeholders to decarbonise road transport.

Within the report: The possible fuel alternatives were to be determined; The routes have been assessed on their applicability to the possible fuels; An understanding was gained on the possible impact upon the local grid; and The details of what changes would be required to the current service were discussed and evaluated, in relation to alternative fuel options. Due to the age of the current vessels operating the routes, retrofitting was not considered as a viable option and any alternatives to the current fleet would be new vessels. The work included the compilation of case studies of vessels deriving power from alternative fuels which includes LNG, CNG, hydrogen, full-electric, liquid nitrogen, bio- fuels, compressed air, ammonia, nuclear, wind and wave.

It is envisaged that this ambition could be achieved by establishing a lighthouse project in the Islands. This feasibility study reviews the potential to develop the OEF project and explores how increased uptake of EVs could provide benefits to residents of, and visitors to, Orkney. The analysis in this report is informed by a comprehensive desk study and engagement with key stakeholders in Orkney. This includes interviews with 15 experts, a public forum, and a roundtable workshop with representatives of local organisations. The first section of the report reviews the policy landscape and establishes that the stated ambitions of the OEF lighthouse project are strategically aligned with the policy objectives of Scotland and the UK in the areas of transport, air quality, and ultra-low emission vehicles.
