University of Aberdeen statement on GB Energy HQ announcement

Statement in response to confirmation that the headquarters of GB Energy, a new UK Government-backed energy company, will be located in Aberdeen.

Professor John Underhill, director of the University of Aberdeen’s Centre for Energy Transition, said:  

“This is fantastic news for the Aberdeen city region, the natural home for GB Energy providing as it does a wealth of knowledge and experience, a world-leading technical,  commercial and academic skills base, and the expert supply chain honed over 50 years as Europe’s energy capital that is vital for delivering the energy transition.   

"The University of Aberdeen and our Centre for Energy Transition stand ready to support GB Energy's quest to accelerate the transition. We, as part of a wider academic ecosystem including RGU and NesCol, have been on this journey with the industry and have a long history of delivering interdisciplinary research and innovative solutions that address current and future energy challenges. 

“This, alongside our involvement with initiatives like the National Energy Skills Accelerator, makes us exceedingly well placed to support this new national venture and policymakers as the UK transitions to clean, sustainable energy and renewables.”
