Nicola Sturgeon has been accused of allowing overseas firms “with woeful human rights records” to profit from Scotland’s offshore wind projects.
Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar said the ScotWind leasing round announcement earlier this week had “sold on the cheap” permission for 17 new offshore wind farms along Scotland’s coast.
Contracts worth almost £700m were awarded on Monday, with Sturgeon describing the deal as “one of the most exciting things for Scotland in a long, long time”.
