Nuclear power in the UK In recent years, the UK government championed nuclear power as a reliable and low-carbon source of electricity, to be used for many years to come. However, this country’s nuclear power plants are nearing the end of their life cycle and the electricity generation fr...
Hinkley Point C is among the most complex nuclear power plants to build from a civil engineering perspective. Here, the engineering discipline comes up against sizeable challenges in terms of technical expertise and planning: meeting stringent nuclear safety standards, anticipating construction difficultie...
The UK Government say the UK is delivering the biggest expansion to nuclear power in 70 years and suitable sites will be critical to meet ambitions to quadruple nuclear capacity by up to 24GW by 2050. This will come from a mix of traditional large-scale power plants and small modular reactor...
