8. Will the Minister provide an update on energy projects in Ynys Môn? OQ55697

"I have no doubt about the potential of Môn in the low-carbon field. The Morlais scheme is very exciting, and I'm looking forward to that receiving permission very soon. We need to drive the Minesto project ahead. The expertise to support these projects is available within Bangor University in Menai Bridge. We have the ability to develop innovation in M-S Parc. There are possibilities in terms of hydrogen development in Môn, and I encourage the Government to invest in those. But there is very great potential, as the Minister mentioned, with regard to the next developments with regard to marine wind—offshore wind and particularly in terms of floating turbines. But to derive the most benefit possible, we need to ensure that Holyhead becomes a hub to service those on the land. Now, the British Government's record on energy projects in Wales isn't great—I'm thinking about Wylfa and the Swansea bay tidal lagoon—but we heard the announcement from the UK Prime Minister on investing in ports for wind energy, so will the Minister give a commitment that the Welsh Government will do all it can to maximise the potential for Môn and Holyhead in this area? "

Questions for Rhun Ap Iorweth:

1. What are the possibilities in terms of hydrogen development in Mon?

2. Would he explain what those possibilities are?
