How will it contribute to regeneration in the area?
It will contribute to the growth of South East Northumberland as a hub for renewable energy technology and innovation. Further, it will bring more work into the Port (as it will use it for the transport of fuel), helping to support jobs and growth in this key part of the community and secure the Port’s economic future. ONE NorthEast has welcomed the project as it will create ‘green collar’ jobs for the area as well as generating clean, green and reliable energy for homes and businesses.
