Renewables are the future Renewable energy is seen as being of vital importance for both the Scottish economy and its environment. At Forth Ports we are ideally placed to take advantage of the growth in renewables, and specifically in marine devices. We are ideally located for companies looking to operate in the Round 3 Offshore Territorial sectors, either using significant land banks for a manufacturing site or utilising our deep water facilities for construction and heavy load out.

We are close to university research facilities where ground-breaking R&D in the field of renewable energy is constantly evolving new development and manufacturing opportunities. Already major players in the global renewable energy industry have chosen to locate within the Port of Leith giving them easy access to academic resource, proximity to the east coast territorial waters and the availability of a skilled and committed labour force. Whether you are involved in wind, wave or tidal power generation we have the facilities and resources to help your business grow.
