Scotland deserves the jobs, investment and power that comes with new nuclear.
View the 2026 Scottish Nuclear Manifesto here.
Today, we have launched the NIA’s Scotland Manifesto, which sets out a clear plan to:
✅ Lift the ban on new nuclear in Scotland
✅ Back Scottish companies to win work on projects in England and Wales
✅ Include new nuclear in the Energy Skills Passport and invest in skills and training for Scottish workers
We must continue pushing for what Scotland deserves. With over 5,400 Scottish nuclear workers, we know Scotland has the workforce and the expertise to support new nuclear development, it now just needs the opportunity.
