A consultation on a draft Scottish Energy Strategy, which sets out the Scottish Government’s vision for the future energy system in Scotland, to 2050. It articulates the priorities for an integrated system-wide approach that considers both the use and the supply of energy for heat, power and transport. The Scottish Government are seeking views on the vision set out in the draft Energy Strategy and how we will seek to achieve this.

Ends 30 May.
It covers energy use, not just generation.
There is a section on reducing energy use in transport. See opposite para 174 for the list of actions.
There are 8 actions of which only 1 is about active travel, and it is just repeating that they are spending at "record levels" - which is 'just' true in absolute terms, although it is a declining % of transport spending and is way below European comparators. All the other 7 actions are about electric vehicles, emissions, etc. Also nothing at all about reducing transport demand. Very poor!
