The motion

That the Parliament celebrates the success of Distell International in receiving the Sustainable Development Award at the 2022 Scottish Green Energy Awards; understands that the project, which is funded and owned by AMP Clean Energy, and developed, built and operated by Dallol Energy, has developed a sustainable biomass energy solution to advance Islay’s Bunnahabhain Distillery’s net zero targets; further understands that the on-site renewable energy facility is powered entirely by local forest biomass and spent malt, a by-product of distillation, which also supports the island’s local economy and forests; understands that the project will result in Islay’s first net zero distillation process; commends all those at Distell International for carrying out this fantastic project and for picking up this award, and wishes them all the very best going forward.
