Details

The Green Freeport bidding prospectus sets out Scottish and UK governments’ expectations for Green Freeports. Both governments expect ports, businesses, local government, and other local partners to come together to bid for Green Freeport status. Partners from across the public and private sectors will need to closely collaborate in order to produce the most competitive bids.

The Green Freeport model closely aligns to the offer set out in England. Green Freeports are based upon 4 main objectives:

  • promote regeneration and high-quality job creation
  • promote decarbonisation and a just transition to a net zero economy
  • establish hubs for global trade and investment
  • foster an innovative environment.

This bidding prospectus describes how we expect bidders to show how the Green Freeport incentives will be used to achieve the 4 objectives.

The bidding process will open on 25 March 2022 and close at 10am on 20 June 2022.

Potential applicants who intend to apply for Green Freeport status can fill out a pre-registration form.
