Power New Build

Shaping the next generation nuclear power

Our Power New Build team covers a wide array of clients and projects in the UK and internationally. We deliver services and projects that range from fusion design projects, to site engineering support at Hinkley Point C. We provide consultancy and design services across all stages of the project lifecycle, from concept design through to site based commissioning. There is innovation at all stages to improve solutions and provide an optimum service.

The UK's current nuclear fleet is approaching the end of its working life. This gap leads to an extensive projected growth in the Power New Build industry. Nuclear is critical to the UK and the world in achieving Net Zero Carbon.

The Power New Build team forms part of the wider Nuclear & Power business, which also includes existing assets, reactor decommissioning, and nuclear fuel cycle markets.

Within Nuclear & Power, our overall vision is to "Build a Cleaner, Safer Net Zero World". Join us to help us achieve our vision.

Early careers

Fusion

Hydrogen-3 Advanced Technology

The Hydrogen-3 Advanced Technology (H3AT) facility will be a research centre for tritium experiments at Culham Science Centre (UKAEA). The main purpose of H3AT is to simulate the reprocessing of exhaust from a tokamak fusion reactor (ITER), the future of providing a viable source of large-scale, safe, and environmentally friendly energy for the planet. 

Our scope of work is to finalise the concept design, and carry out the preliminary and detailed design for the tritium loop at H3AT. The design contains eight different sub-systems to work and integrate with one another seamlessly to be able to test and optimise tritium recovery systems, as well as supplying tritium and other gases to several smaller experiments. The integrated project team consists of members from process, electrical, C&I, mechanical, structural, safety, and project delivery teams – working together to deliver H3AT to scope, time and budget.

Large nuclear

Hinkley Point C As part of the Hinkley Technical Support Alliance (HTSA), Atkins has a huge variety of seconded staff embedded within our client organisations to provide specialist technical and project management services. These range from providing design support to the construction teams on site, to project managing the delivery of the safety case in the back office. These secondments are hugely rewarding experiences as they allow our staff the opportunity to develop their skills and experiences by working on live construction or operational sites. The breadth of secondment opportunities is exciting and offers plenty of variety to support individual personal and professional development.

Small nuclear

The UK Small Modular Reactor (SMR)

The UK Small Modular Reactor strives to be a nuclear power station that is an affordable, reliable, and investable solution to the domestic commitments of net zero and the international challenge of transitioning to low carbon energy systems. The SMR Design is currently in pre-concept phase and is preparing for the Generic Design Assessment (GDA) process beginning in 2021. Atkins has been collaborating with Rolls-Royce and 7 other companies in a consortium, providing wide- ranging support services via a diverse team of project and engineering disciplines. Atkins was chosen as the Civils, Structural & Architectural (CSA) lead to deliver the design of all principal islands, applying our knowledge and experience of UK and International new build projects.

Atkins has also completed a ‘Route to Net Zero Strategy’ report, which summarised key low-carbon interventions to address the operational and embodied carbon emissions estimated to be released from the new SMR Heavy Vessel factory.
