RTPI Scotland has submitted evidence to the Economy, Energy and Fair Work Committee on the Annual Energy Statement. The submission noted that with just 5.9% of Scotland's non-electrical heat demand being produced from renewable sources in 2017, it is highly unlikely that an 11% target can be met by 2020. It also made the point that planning will be central to helping deliver the wide scale roll out of non-electrical heating from renewable sources needed to meet Scotland’s net-zero greenhouse gas emission target by 2045.
