Three New Directors Appointed To Scottish Renewables Board
Scottish Renewables, the industry body for renewable energy in Scotland, has announced the appointment of three new Directors to its Board.
Finley Becks-Phelps (Fred. Olsen Renewables), Alwyn Poulter (Hitachi Energy), and Sarah McIntosh (Muirhall Energy) were elected by the organisation's 360+ member companies to serve three-year terms.
"I want to extend my congratulations to Finley, Alwyn and Sarah on their appointment to the Board of Scottish Renewables," said Claire Mack, Chief Executive of Scottish Renewables. "The Board is elected by our member companies, who have taken the opportunity to vote and influence the leadership of Scotland’s renewable energy sector."
"All three bring a wealth of experience across various technologies and policy areas while playing key roles in Scotland’s ongoing journey towards a clean energy future," Mack added.
The new Directors will play a crucial role in supporting Scottish Renewables' efforts to expand Scotland's renewable energy sector and maintain its leadership in the global clean energy industry.
This year promises to be pivotal for the industry as the focus shifts to the delivery of the Clean Power 2030 Action Plan and understanding community-level views on renewable energy deployment.
