Put simply - lots of high paid, high skill jobs for #Peterborough.
Today I launched the business case for this centre in Peterborough, we are competing with Texas! It could mean 9,000 jobs, and really put our City on the map.
With Peterborough City Council, TWI, and Anglia Ruskin University, we are making the case Global Innovation Centre for Energy Transition at ARU-Peterborough.
Cadent, Rolls Royce, Airbus, Ford - lots of big names involved.
This is genuinely exciting. Decisions like this will guarantee our future health, wealth and happiness, and make Peterborough a leader in energy transition.
