Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, when he will publish the results of Great British Energy - Nuclear’s study into potential sites for new nuclear development in Scotland.

In autumn 2025, Great British Energy - Nuclear (GBE-N) was commissioned by Department Ministers to assess Scotland’s potential for new nuclear power, including around areas that have previously hosted nuclear stations, such as Torness and Hunterston.

There is still more to do before Government can share the outcome of GBE-N’s assessment, but we remain open to discussions with the Scottish Government on deploying new nuclear technologies in Scotland.
