Humza Yousaf is warning that Scotland risks losing out on energy-transition opportunities unless the UK Government pursues more ambitious policies.
The First Minister says that, without urgent change, Britain would fall behind its international competitors and risked "throwing away the transformational green opportunities available to Scotland".
Mr Yousaf's is speaking at the All-Energy conference in Glasgow today, and is expected to set out ambitions for the energy sector as a central part of Scotland's future net-zero economy.
Energy Voice says he will call on the UK Government to be a "willing partner" with Scotland by committing to measures which would help drive investment in green technologies and make the most of the country's renewable energy potential.
These measures include Westminster working with Holyrood to announce an accelerated timetable for the north-east's Acorn carbon capture, utilisation and storage scheme.
The project, based at St Fergus and central to the wider Scottish Cluster decarbonisation initiative, missed out on Track 1 funding in 2021, and is now considered a "leading contender" for the Track 2 process which is currently in progress.
Just Transition Fund
In addition, Mr Yousaf will ask the UK Government to "at the very least" match the Scottish Government's £500million Just Transition Fund for the North east and Moray.
Energy Voice says he will also call for measures to address the transmission-charging system which penalises offshore wind generators in Scotland and acts as a disincentive to further investment.
The current charging system was designed around 30 years ago as a means of incentivising operators to build projects near to major urban hubs, but means developments in remote locations have to pay large fees to put energy into the grid.
Representatives from Offshore Energies UK will also be at All-Energy today and tomorrow.
Delegates from the trade body will be there to champion the offshore energy sector.
OEUK external relations director Jenny Stanning said: "Our members are the same companies that are investing to accelerate our expansion into renewable sources.
Driving innovation
"The home-grown expertise of our people is driving innovation in cleaner energy production. We are determined to create a sustainable future.
"As we build that future there is no simple choice between oil and gas on the one hand and renewables on the other. The reality is that, to keep the lights on and grow our economy, we need both. By the mid-2030s, oil and gas will still provide for 50% of our energy needs.
"So we look forward to representing the change our members are making at All-Energy - and showing how oil & gas and renewables can work in tandem to provide a secure, diverse and affordable energy future."
