The Scottish Conservatives say voting for the Greens in the Holyrood election would risk a “devastating blow” to the north-east economy.
The Scottish Green party has promised a “just transition” from fossil fuel reliance to “cleaner” energy.
This includes stopping public investment in carbon capture and storage, an end to new licenses for oil exploration and an end to subsidies for North Sea oil and gas companies.
Tory leader Douglas Ross, however, has accused the party of threatening to “risk the taps being turned off” on gas and oil, which would pose a threat to the north-east’s economy.

MPs accuse Treasury and HMRC of shirking climate responsibilities
The Treasury and HMRC are failing to respond to a climate storm breaking all around us , failing to make the necessary changes to tax systems and short-term funding packages needed for the just transition to net-zero.
After this year s Budget and the first Tax Day , further announcements are due in the second half of the year
That is according to a damning new report from the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) today (28 April).
Building on the Committee’s recent report on net-zero delivery, which accused the Government of having no credible plans in the short and mid-term to back up its long-term climate goals, the report takes a specific look at the ways in which Government finance must transform.
