Scotland’s seabed has been opened up to new wind farm developments for the first time in a decade, in a move which could lead to multi-billion pound investments.

Crown Estate Scotland, which manages the country’s seabed, has launched the new round of offshore wind leasing in Scottish waters, called ScotWind Leasing.

It said total investment in ScotWind Leasing projects could potentially surpass £8 billion and help power the transition to a net-zero future.
