12. Communication and progress reporting
The Renewables Action Plan is a constantly evolving plan for delivery to 2020 and beyond, requiring periodic, visible updates and a mechanism for progress reporting. At the same time, with the rapid pace of change, there is a need for a visible "centre of gravity" - a coherent, easily navigable overview of the renewables sector.
- The Renewables Action Plan will therefore be placed at the centre of a new on-line resource for renewables in Scotland, and serve as a principal reference point for the sector.
- The site will act as a portal through which to access the rapidly changing and expanding sources of information and advice contained within different organisations' web pages, and will reflect on-going Government and industry activity.
- Either of itself or through links, it will include information on opportunities for individuals and communities, and for developers and supply chain companies.
- The site will be developed in the latter part of 2009, and will go live in 2010.
- The Action Plan itself will be subject to progress updates every 6 months.
- The Route Map actions will be refreshed and updated on an annual basis.
