Holyrood’s associate feature Berwick Bank ready to deliver an economic power punch includes a summary of our economic impact study. Our work showed that at peak construction in 2026 the Berwick Bank project could create around 4,650 direct, indirect and induced jobs in Scotland, and 9,300 in the UK – adding an estimated £8.3 billion to the UK economy as a whole over the lifetime of the project. Of that UK investment, we estimated that as much as £4.1 billion can be directly invested into the Scottish economy over the lifetime, from construction through to operation.
