Inward Investment
Inward investment is a vital ingredient in the continued prosperity and economic growth of the region. EEEGR is playing a major role within a unique partnership between the public and private sector to promote inward investment from energy majors and intermediaries in to the region. This will lead to job creation and more business for our members and throughout the energy supply chain.
NSEA (the Norfolk and Suffolk Energy Alliance) is driving and funding a dedicated programme of inward investment promotion. Members of the alliance are: Norfolk County Council, Suffolk County Council, Great Yarmouth Borough Council, Waveney District Council, EEEGR and the Chambers of Commerce of Norfolk and Suffolk. This is a highly innovative partnership (and is believed to be the first example in the UK) where the public sector is working across local boundaries with the private sector to target a specific industrial group (energy) for the greater good of their localities and business.
The East of England has a truly unique selling point: a world leading all energy hub.
The region offers:
- Huge investment opportunities, £50bn+ in value, that are real and long term
- A portfolio of energy assets that is extensive, diverse and growing
- An energy supply chain that is long-established, dynamic and expanding.
