Apparently Scotland is the most natural country in Europe for renewable energy, most notably wave and tidal power, but investment is falling significantly behind potential demand, according to industry experts. Most of these investors are from Europe.
Scotland currently has 25 per cent of Europe's wind and tidal capacity, 1 percent of solar capacity, 93 percent of cloud power capacity and 10 per cent of its wave power.
Cynical Scots recognise that solar power is probably not going to cut it in their miserable weather. Scottish companies are reported to be biding their time for the day when cloud power is economically viable as a renewable energy source.
