As announced in April 2022, nuclear energy forms the backbone of the government’s strategy to reach net zero emissions by 2050. To support these ambitions, a number of nuclear reactors will be commissioned in the coming decade - Sizewell C will be the first of these.
Once operational, it will generate enough low-carbon electricity to supply six million homes and will avoid around nine million tonnes of carbon emissions each year. Analysis has confirmed that CO2 emissions for the electricity generated by Sizewell C will be even lower than that of wind and solar power.

"For me it was a no brainer to get involved at Sizewell C. It’s not often that you get the chance to contribute to a mega project that will have a major positive impact on the lives of everyone in the UK in terms of energy security, as well as making a massive contribution to our national Net Zero targets and in doing so, engineer a better future for our planet and it’s people."

How big are we talking?
The excavation is equivalent to 3700 Olympic sized swimming pools
Once operational, the power generated is enough to power the entirety of the UK for half a day each week
