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.

Despite French firm EDF’s assurances Sizewell would be a carbon copy of the ongoing Hinkley Point C project, and that major savings in time and cost would result accordingly, it has persuaded ministers that £8bn of public money is required up front merely to help it reach a…

'Paul Dorfman, chair of the Nuclear Consulting Group, a group of #nuclear-sceptic academics and experts, says the problem shows how even nuclear projects that are meant to be copies end up being unique. “Each reactor is a first-of-a-kind, actually”.

'Asked if he thinks steady orders and standardisation can bring the [#nuclear] sector’s costs under control, Burke replies: “I think that’s one of the biggest ‘ifs’ I’ve ever seen.”

'Alison Downes, from #StopSizewellC, said: "The taxpayer is being forced to pay for what is basically a bet that this project is a good idea and should go ahead.
"The possibility that #SizewellC could go ahead at whatever price is just completely inconceivable.
"Every penny they spend on Sizewell C is a penny lost to cheaper, quicker renewable energy projects that could get us to net zero more quickly and address our climate crisis."'

#StopSizewellC, the campaign group devoted to overturning the project, says taxpayers are still in the dark about how much it is expected to cost.

“There is no transparency around #SizewellC,” says spokesman Alison Downes, who lives nearby. “Why, despite government support, does its likely eye-watering cost and impact on households remain shrouded in secrecy?

“Our climate emergency demands urgent action and getting the biggest bang for the UK’s limited bucks, yet every pound of taxpayers’ money spent on Sizewell C is a pound lost to alternative quicker, cheaper clean energy projects.”
