GB Energy to be based in Aberdeen, PM confirms

Sir Keir Starmer has revealed GB Energy will be based in Aberdeen, Scotland.

"We said GB Energy - our publicly-owned national champion, the vehicle that will drive forward our mission on clean energy - we said it belonged in Scotland.

And it does.

But the truth is, it could only really be based in one place in Scotland.

And that place is Aberdeen," he said.
