An alliance involving local authorities in Scotland could help promote the waste-to-energy industry in the region.
Businesses, public sector organisations, and educational institutions across the east coast of Scotland would form a partnership to help boost the local renewable energy sector.
The East Coast Renewables alliance would also work with Scottish Enterprise and Scottish Development International to help promote the region as a key area for investment.
Niall Stuart, chief executive of trade association Scottish Renewables, was full of praise for the potential programme.
He said: “This is a fantastic initiative which will undoubtedly help achieve Scotland’s aim to become a leading area for renewable energy development in Europe.
“We need this kind of cross boundary collaboration from local authorities to position Scotland as a key location for investment.”
Further investment in the area could result in an increased demand for waste-to-energy industry machinery.
