RSE Energy Inquiry
Scotland’s Energy Future
The RSE’s Energy Inquiry aimed to contribute to the important debate around Scotland’s energy supply, demand and use; a debate that needed to recognise our moral and environmental responsibilities. It looked to inform the policy and decision-making at a Scottish, UK and international level that will ultimately decide whether the path Scotland chooses to follow provides the resources needed at acceptable financial, moral, ethical and environmental costs.
