Use £5bn oil and gas revenue to fund Acorn carbon capture project, says SNP

The SNP is calling for £5bn in oil and gas revenues, generated via the windfall tax on energy giants, to fund the Acorn carbon capture project. This proposal follows a decision by Chancellor John Healey to alter a previous UK Government commitment of £200 million in grant funding during the Budget. SNP Westminster leader Dave Doogan stated that the projected funds from the tax should be redirected to support the Acorn carbon capture initiative instead.
