Net Zero
Our Net Zero Ambitions
We are committed to doing our part to contribute towards the energy transition and Scotland’s ambitious Net Zero targets. We have been taking action now to improve our energy efficiency, significantly reduce our carbon footprint and safeguard the Port for future generations to come.
With our unrivalled location and direct line of access to North Sea Wind Farms, Montrose is leading the way with the energy transition and is fast becoming the go-to renewables hub in the region, particularly with its aim of becoming the greenest port in Scotland.
In 2022 we secured the Inch Cape O&M base with construction commencing in 2023.
