Pan gyhoeddais y byddai Llywodraeth Cymru’n sefydlu datblygwr gwladol Cymreig er lles pobl Cymru, addewais y byddwn yn diweddaru’r Senedd ar y mater. Mae’n dda gen i ddweud bod pethau’n mynd rhagddynt fel y dylent tuag at ei lansio ym mis Ebrill 2024\.


Un o’r cwestiynau cyntaf yw sut mae pobl yn gweld y cwmni. Mae enw yn gam cyntaf pwysig i wneud yn siŵr ei fod yn gorff y bydd pobl yn ei adnabod ac yn deall ei rôl wrth gyflawni dros bobl Cymru. Enw ein datblygwr newydd fydd **Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru** sy’n ei gwneud yn hollol glir mai ei fwriad yw pweru Cymru at ddyfodol glân a llewyrchus.


Rwy’n falch iawn ein bod wedi gallu penodi Prif Weithredwr ardderchog a galluog iawn i arwain y cwmni, yn dilyn cystadleuaeth agored a theg a ddenodd llawer o ymgeiswyr cryf ac abl.  Rydym wedi penodi Richard Evans, sydd â chefndir proffesiynol cryf fel datblygwr ac sydd wedi gweithio ar draws y sector cyhoeddus, yn ein helpu i wireddu’n huchelgais ar gyfer ynni trwy Wasanaeth Ynni Llywodraeth Cymru. Rwy’n disgwyl ymlaen at weithio gyda Richard i wireddu fy uchelgais ar gyfer y cwmni ac i wneud gwahaniaeth go iawn i’n cymunedau.


Bydd ein hymgyrch recriwtio’n mynd yn ei blaen gydol eleni, wrth i ni chwilio am bobl â phrofiad ym maes datblygu ynni sydd am fod yn rhan o’r cwmni newydd a chyffrous hwn. Byddwn yn chwilio hefyd am Gadeirydd i Fwrdd annibynnol. Bydd honno’n swydd bwysig o ran llywio’r cwmni wrth iddo ennill ei blwyf a meithrin prosiectau.


Un o brif amcanion y cwmni fydd helpu i greu gwerth i bobl Cymru. Mae caffael yn erfyn hynod bwerus wrth i ni geisio’r newidiadau rydym am eu gweld. Rydym wedi creu contractau llwyddiannus â chyrff galluog iawn i helpu’r tîm Trydan Gwyrdd i sefydlu prosiectau adnewyddadwy sydd wedi’u dylunio’n dda. Rydym wedi canolbwyntio ar gydweithio â chwmnïau o Gymru a sicrhau gwerth cymdeithasol i Gymru. Rwy’n disgwyl ymlaen at egluro sut y byddwn yn sicrhau’r manteision hyn wrth i’r broses ddatblygu ddechrau.


Er mai dim ond cam arall yw hwn mewn proses hir ac mae llawer eto i’w wneud, gobeithio’ch bod yn croesawu’r cerrig milltir hyn ar ein ffordd tuag at greu Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru.


Caiff y datganiad ei gyhoeddi yn ystod y toriad er mwyn rhoi'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i aelodau. Os bydd aelodau eisiau i mi wneud datganiad pellach neu ateb cwestiynau ynglŷn â hyn pan fydd y Senedd yn dychwelyd, byddwn yn hapus i wneud hynny.

When I announced that Welsh Government would establish a Welsh state developer to benefit Welsh citizens, I committed to updating the Siambr on progress. I am happy to say that we are making progress at pace towards our launch date of April 2024\.


One of the early questions is about how people see the company. The name is an important first step in making sure that it is an organisation people can recognise and understand the role it has in delivering for the people of Wales. Our new developer will be called **Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru**, making it absolutely clear that its intent is to power Wales into a clean and more prosperous future.


I am also very pleased that we have secured an excellent and highly skilled Chief Executive to lead the company, following an open and fair competition that attracted a strong and able field of candidates. We have appointed Richard Evans, who has both a strong professional background as a developer and has worked across the public sector helping us deliver our energy ambitions through the Welsh Government Energy Service. I look forward to working with Richard to deliver the ambitions I have for this company to make a real difference to our communities.


Our recruitment campaign is continuing throughout this year, as we look to staff the company with people with experience in energy development who want be part of this new and exciting company. We will also be searching for a Chair for an independent Board, which will have the important role of steering the company as it establishes itself and its projects.


A key focus of the company is supporting value creation for the people of Wales. Procurement is a hugely powerful tool in driving the changes we want to see. We have successfully contracted with some very skilled organisations to support the Trydan team in establishing well\-designed renewable projects. We have focused on involving Welsh companies and delivering social value to Wales, and I look forward to reporting on how we realise these immediate benefits as the development process begins.


Though this is just another step in a long\-term process and there is still much to do, I hope you will welcome these milestones on the way to the birth of Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru.


This statement is being issued during recess in order to keep members informed. Should members wish me to make a further statement or to answer questions on this when the Senedd returns I would be happy to do so.
