| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “Thank you. Louise, you have quite a lot of experience in this with Net Zero Terrace Streets. What are the top tips? What can we learn from that experience?” | 29 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “Do you see an appetite for that Orkney example elsewhere in Scotland or elsewhere across the UK? Do you see other people wanting to do that?” | 26 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “Okay. Speaking of money, Zoë and Louise, you have both proposed that GB Energy attaches conditions to funding grants that require local authorities to work with community energy groups. Why did you raise your concerns?” | 35 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “Welcome all. Forgive my voice—it is in my boots. I was going to ask questions about the role of local authorities, but before I do, Marna McMillin, you mentioned about communities of interest as well as communities of place. I think you will recognise a community when you see one, but this idea of community of interest…” | 69 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “You have anticipated my question, Matthew and Helen, by talking about these incentives and CfD plus, by which I assume you mean that, if there is a community element to your application for CfD, you will be bumped up that queue, and if there was a grid connection application that had a community element, say 25% or 20%…” | 87 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “Jake and Zoë, you talked about the depth of professional knowledge there already is in the community sector. Is there not an argument for taking that knowledge and turning it into a community energy unit within GB Energy that helps other communities that do not have that capacity?” | 48 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “Zoë, do you agree?” | 4 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “You have anticipated my question, Matthew and Helen, by talking about these incentives and CfD plus, by which I assume you mean that, if there is a community element to your application for CfD, you will be bumped up that queue, and if there was a grid connection application that had a community element, say 25% or 20%…” | 87 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “They have never been used?” | 5 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “Thanks. Jake, just very quickly, you talked about the community right to buy in that Infrastructure Act 2015.” | 18 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “A 20% offer to get GB Energy money and grid connections more quickly as a community element. Jake, what is your view?” | 22 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “—and that there should be a mandatory approach. If GB Energy is going to be investing in lots of these schemes, should there be a minimum obligation for community share in schemes that GB Energy finances?” | 36 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “Basically, you are saying the guidelines approach has not worked—” | 10 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “I am going to go to Zoë first to ask what her experience was in Scotland and then I will come to you, Jake.” | 24 |
| 12 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 394) “Do you think there should be a derogation, then, for schemes that have a community element or even a 100% community element?” | 22 |
| 6 Mar 2025 | Business of the House “We all know of one famous US citizen who has close family ties to Scotland, but there are 25 million Scots Americans who want to trace their lineage—it is a big market. That is why organisations in my constituency such as Hebrides People in Harris and historical societies in Ness and North Uist invest in family histori…” economy-jobslocal-governmentmp-performance | 106 |
| 6 Mar 2025 | North Sea Energy “I thank the Minister for her statement, and for the role she played in securing a future for the Methil and Arnish yards in my constituency under the new ownership of Navantia, with new and secure jobs for the future. I am glad she is taking no lessons from the shadow Minister, given that under his Government’s watch, …” energyeconomy-jobsenvironment | 128 |
| 5 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 393) “Dr Hanna, can we deliver clean energy by 2030 and decarbonising by 2050 alone? Can we do it with British jobs for British workers, or will we have to go into the international market?” | 34 |
| 5 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 393) “You can write to us about that if you like.” | 10 |
| 5 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 393) “Can anyone else help me with that?” | 7 |
