WINDFARM workers will be trained in a new £1.6 million private facility in Aberdeen after the government confirmed the city will host Great British Energy.
Cromarty-based joint venture, Sarens PSG — already a provider of skilled workers and equipment to the offshore wind industry — says 25 jobs will be created at a new “centre of excellence” based within the city’s controversial energy transition zone.
Sarens PSG’s Steve Clark said: “The offshore wind sector is a critical part of achieving our net-zero targets, but we’ve not been moving fast enough.
