Headquartered in Edinburgh, the Scottish Government operates under the leadership of the First Minister and a cabinet of ministers. It was previously known as the Scottish Executive until 2007.

The government exercises powers devolved from the UK Parliament and plays an active role in funding initiatives aimed at economic transition, such as grants for clean technology projects through the Just Transition Fund. This supports the development of renewable energy infrastructure and manufacturing facilities in Scotland.

As a public body, it focuses on delivering public services and promoting sustainable growth within its jurisdiction, while coordinating with the UK government on reserved matters like foreign policy and defense.

The Scottish Government oversees various agencies and directorates that implement its policies across the nation. In the energy sector, the Scottish Government supports projects that advance hydrogen and electrolyser technologies to meet climate targets and create employment opportunities in regions like Aberdeen.

Also known as Scottish Executive.
