Executive Summary
Energy UK is supportive of community benefits for generation in Scotland, noting the success story they are for the country. Regarding this consultation, while we support the current Good Practise Principles, we would note that the current balance on community benefits is also delicate, and any changes require careful handling. For offshore wind, there may be limited opportunities to introduce meaningful new policies, given the very different economics of offshore wind to many onshore generation technologies.
