The motion
That the Parliament welcomes the official opening of the Energy Transition Skills Hub in Aberdeen by the First Minister on 29 September 2025; notes that the skills hub, which is a joint venture between ETZ Ltd, Shell UK and North East Scotland College, with support from the Scottish Government’s Just Transition Fund, aims to help 1,000 people into jobs over the next five years; understands that the skills hub will showcase technologies related to offshore wind, electric vehicles, hydrogen fuel and carbon capture and storage, tailored to fit employment needs through industry-leading workshops and flexible teaching spaces; believes that the hub will play a huge part in Aberdeen’s transition from the oil and gas capital of Europe into a globally recognised integrated energy centre, and congratulates all those involved in getting the skills hub up and running.
