Investment fund consultation findings
During spring 2024, we carried out a six-week consultation in the area around the Aldbrough Gas Storage site to give stakeholders the opportunity to provide their thoughts and ideas and for us to capture this feedback. We are working with communities to and stakeholders to help shape the plans.
The findings of this consultation have been collated into a report which is available here.
