Stop Sizewell C! Wrong Project, Wrong Time, Wrong Place.

Sizewell C is too slow and expensive compared to alternatives in the fight against Climate Change and the construction of two new nuclear reactors on the Suffolk coast will have a devastating impact on this unique and magical place. Final go ahead was expected in the last parliament, but the Labour government now has an opportunity to reconsider this ill-advised project. For more information, read our briefing “Why Stop Sizewell C?’ here.

WHAT YOU CAN DO…

Visit our TAKE ACTION PAGE for our online campaigns. These include:

• Ask the Prime Minister, Chancellor and Energy Secretary to Cancel Sizewell C.
• Message your MP and ask them not to support Sizewell C.

Campaign Success! We have managed to deter almost all pension funds from investing in Sizewell C. The video below explains why they should not invest, but we still need your help to tell the few other investors (including one pension fund) why they should keep their money out of slow, risky, expensive #nuclear Sizewell C.  www.action.stopsizewellc.org/.

Heart breaking that UK taxpayer £bns are being used to destroy vast swathes of biodiversity-rich East Suffolk countryside, much of it in the AONB, when it is clear that #Labour & EDF are struggling to find the likely £40bn+ to complete the Sizewell C white 🐘 #SayNo2SizewellC

With financial markets putting the squeeze on the Government, I’ve written to the new Office for Value for Money to make sure we’re getting a good deal as taxpayers.

If the Chancellor is looking for ways to save money at the next Budget - our massive spending commitments to nuclear and carbon capture ought to be in scope…

Carbon capture has not been proved to work at scale anywhere in the world today and nuclear is slow to build, very…

'The government has already committed about £8 billion to the project. Small wonder that sceptics, including Labour donor Dale Vince, have called for close scrutiny of #SizewellC.

Over time, over budget… will our new nuclear plants ever be built?

"Trouble is flying thick and fast at EDF....The engineers working on [#Flamanville3's] start-up have their doubts. And a big one. “They don't know whether the EPR [#nuclear reactor] will be able to operate at full power.... contrary to what EDF's communication claims, the vibration problems affecting the reactor's primary circuit are far from being resolved. 'The report confirms that there are still problems with excessive vibrations', says the decidedly talkative executive." [machine translation]

Rejecting claims but not providing an alternative figure or specifically stating #SizewellC will NOT cost £40bn is pretty meaningless. Also no reason why the topline figure is commercially sensitive - politically sensitive is another matter! But hey, at least they quote us

EDF reject claims Suffolk Sizewell C nuclear site will cost £40bn

EDF and the government say they do not recognise the £40bn figure and it is "not accurate".

Alison Downes, executive director of campaign group @StopSizewellC, urged the government to reveal the true cost of the project, adding: ‘This secrecy around #SizewellC is inexcusable.’

Labour ministers are urged to reveal true cost of building Sizewell C

The cost overruns on the project in Suffolk will ring alarm bells as the nuclear plant is considered vital for keeping the lights on as the UK switches to renewable power.
