Alistair Phillips-Davies, Chief Executive of UK-headquartered SSE, which has a £20bn clean power investment programme said:
"Clean power is a big challenge, but if we act with enough urgency, decisiveness and the right partnership between industry, government and regulators then it is achievable.
"Industry will invest the money needed if regulators deliver investible frameworks and government provides supportive policies that get projects built.
"The faster we get there the quicker we can deliver the good jobs and energy security we all want to see; building a strong home-grown system that is affordable and protects families and businesses from future energy price shocks.
"SSE is ready to play our part delivering the renewables, electricity networks and flexible technologies needed to deliver clean power at pace."
