Partners including Peterhead Port Authority have submitted an Aberdeen City & Peterhead Region Freeport/Green Port notice of interest to the Scottish Government, noting that if investment is targeted at the right locations and right sectors, freeports could have a catalytic impact on job creation, productivity and net zero ambitions.
A location such as the Aberdeen City & Peterhead Region, which is home to a well-established, mature energy cluster with the associated supply chains, R&D institutes and facilities and a significant fishing industry would ensure that freeport benefits were maximised.
