Sizewell C – Wrong Project, Wrong Time, Wrong Place.
Stop Sizewell C statement on Sizewell C’s Final Investment Decision, 22 July 2025.
“This much-delayed Final Investment Decision has only crawled over the line thanks to guarantees that the public purse, not private investors, will carry the can for the inevitable cost overruns. Even so, UK households will soon be hit with a new Sizewell C construction tax on their energy bills. It is astounding that it is only now, as contracts are being signed, that the government has confessed that Sizewell C’s cost has almost doubled to an eye watering £38 billion – a figure that will only go up. Given that Ministers claimed not to recognise the cost was close to £40 billion is there any wonder there is so little trust in this project?”
