We really welcome this significant news for our region. A cash injection like this is not just good news for decarbonisation, but the local economy and community too. This is exactly the type of long-term investment we need; investment that goes beyond just one political cycle. We need business to invest in our region in order for it to thrive. We can’t wait for government to loosen its purse strings. This announcement really puts a spotlight on our region, and its position as a great place to live, learn and work”.

This is a big boost for the regional economy and puts Somerset and the South West at the forefront of the UK’s transition to net zero. As the region’s international gateway, we’ll do everything we can to support this exciting project and its supply chain
