Working with Pembrokeshire Public Services Board / Swansea Bay City Deal partners

The Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 (opens in a new tab) established a statutory board, known as a Public Services Board (PSB), in each local authority area in Wales. Each PSB is a collection of public bodies working together to improve the well-being of its county. The Pembrokeshire Public Services Board is currently undertaking a Climate Change and Environmental Risk Assessment for Pembrokeshire, via a working group of that name, in order to develop clear and defined actions that can be taken by individuals, communities and organisations.

The Swansea Bay City Deal (opens in a new tab) programme includes 11 projects across four key themes:

(1) Economic Acceleration;

(2) Life Science and Well-being;

(3) Energy; and

(4) Smart Manufacturing.

These include the Pembroke Dock Marine (opens in a new tab) (PDM) and Homes as Power Stations (opens in a new tab) (HAPS) projects.

Pembrokeshire County Council is the Lead Authority for the PDM project. The aim is to support the existing marine-engineering cluster in Pembroke Dock in order to benefit from inward-investment opportunities attracted to the area because of its unrivalled location, knowledge and expertise, supply chain and connectivity. PDM offers the opportunity for Pembrokeshire to create the right combination of terrestrial and maritime assets to become a UK leader in the developing global market in marine renewables, including floating offshore wind. PDM can also unlock future potential support for decarbonisation, with the UK-wide Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult (opens in a new tab) now cemented in the County and actively promoting the area through the UK Government’s Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund. The project can also do so by hosting the Swansea Bay City Region’s largest renewable-energy generating station in the Pembrokeshire Demonstration Zone.

The regional HAPS programme aims to coordinate the delivery of smart, low-carbon, energy-efficient homes by encouraging the use of domestic HAPS technologies. The programme intends to coordinate the adoption of HAPS technologies for both new-build and retrofit developments across the public and private sectors, proving the concept in the public sector before rolling it out in the private sector.
