Nuclear union welcomes Sizewell C plans

The publication by EDF Energy of its proposals and options for a Sizewell C nuclear power station has been welcomed by Prospect.



“This is an important step on the road to delivering world class jobs and skills for Suffolk and the UK, as well as the future generation of electricity in the UK,” said Prospect General Secretary Designate Mike Clancy.

“Consultation with local communities and other stakeholders will be necessarily robust. Prospect believes that the boost to the local economy by the construction and then the operation of the new station as a part of a balanced energy policy is an important consideration.

“The consultation process is another example of the serious commitment by EDF Energy to investing in new nuclear in Britain,” said Clancy.
