We all want a Scotland where clean, affordable renewable energy is accessible to everyone. Â
However, fossil fuel companies like SSE and Equinor have other ideas. They want to continue making huge profits from our energy bills by building a brand new gas burning power station in Peterhead, in Aberdeenshire. Â
The Scottish Government will decide whether this project can go ahead or not. Â
Scotland has already fallen behind on our climate commitments and new fossil fuels will further lock us into a polluting energy system. Â
Because it is a planning application, the decision on the new power station won’t be discussed in Parliament, so MSPs won’t hear about it unless we tell them. Â
Write to your MSP today to ask them to raise your concerns to Gillian Martin and Alasdair Allan who are the Ministers involved in making the final decision.
