Securing our clean energy future

Sizewell C is Britain’s latest Net-Zero megaproject.

It will be a 3.2-gigawatt power station, providing decades of clean, reliable electricity from nuclear energy for 6 million homes.

Communities

A once-in-a-generation opportunity

Whether it’s through our community arts programme, our £23m community fund or our many other initiatives, Sizewell C is already bringing transformational and positive change to the East of England.

There is strong local support for Sizewell C because we always have and always will put community and sustainability at the heart of what we do.

Careers

Thousands of jobs and apprenticeships

Our strongest asset is our people and at Sizewell C, we invest in their potential.

Together with our education partners and charities, we’re already helping school-leavers, people looking to switch careers, those currently out of work, and many others develop the skills they need to work with us.

Our project will support 70,000 jobs during construction. We’ll need a big team from our local community and across the UK to get the power station built and operating.

Environment

Boosting biodiversity

At Sizewell C, we’re not just building a nuclear power station; we’re also creating stunning nature reserves around our site for wildlife to thrive in. This is to mitigate the impacts of constructing Sizewell C.

Nuclear and nature have coexisted around the nuclear power stations in East Suffolk for decades. Our environmental plans will take these efforts further, eventually resulting in more local biodiversity, more nature recovery and more rewilding on our site and beyond.
