National purpose - New Energy Scotland Delivery Group:-– report to EAB– fastest, easiest, most supportive to innovation– small group – developers (FREDs OffWIND), port owners, SE/HIE, SDI, SRF– driven by N-RIP team
Regional Delivery Alliances:-– Bremerhaven Lessons– SE/HIE to drive and support– Where - “wind regions” East Wind West Wind
North wind

Issues and Opportunities Issues and Opportunities
New Energy Scotland Delivery Group - convene early
December
Costed investment plans developed
Installation - fastest location study
Simplified support offering

Fast Forward Timescale Fast Forward Timescale
Industry demands - are there other infrastructure needs?
Locations - does it seem right?
Dependencies - what are the (other) critical foundations for success?
Delivery alliances - is this the optimal approach?
Funding infrastructure needs - sources of funding?
Key Questions Key Questions
Wind - Fast Forward Strategy - ready by 2012/13
Wave/tidal - staged but further dialogue with Pentland Firth testers
First Wave Investment Strategy - triggered
Delivery alliances - SE/HIE with ports and developers
New Energy Scotland Delivery Group - increase momentum and ensure systematic approach
