Companies urged over green energy

Deputy First Minister Nicol Stephen has urged Scottish energy companies to take the lead in pioneering new types of green technology.

His comments came as a Dundee and Aberdeen-based company unveiled details of a new type of battery which aims to increase electric vehicle efficiency.
The project is being developed by Axeon in conjunction with another company, ITI Energy, also based in Aberdeen.

Mr Stephen said Scotland aimed to be a world leader in alternative technology.
