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?”

Landlord of @thebertonlion on losses: "[£35K] is a huge amount of money for us. It's not that people don't want to get here, but they think they can't because of uncertainty where roads are closed as the signage is misleading" #SizewellC #StopSizewellC

A new report by @dorfman_p: ‘Debt, Delays, Dependencies. Why Public Banks Should Not Support Nuclear Power‘ shows "New #nuclear is already too late. The #renewable transition is happening now - and smart policy must move with it."

"Archaeologists at #SizewellC have uncovered a concentrated area of Roman industrial activity...during excavations for the Sizewell Link Road, which will bypass Middleton and Theberton. [Here] the evidence points clearly to Roman industry."

A report by Dr Paul Dorfman, ‘Debt, Delays, Dependencies. Why Public Banks Should Not Support Nuclear Power‘: "#Nuclear It is not simply expensive, it is structurally misaligned with the speed, scale and affordability required for effective climate action. Dr Dorfman's contribution makes clear that new nuclear power represents a policy dead end, diverting scarce resources away from climate‑effective solutions. The opportunity cost is enormous: every pound invested in nuclear is a pound not invested in renewables, energy efficiency, storage or grid resilience. New nuclear is already too late. The renewable transition is happening now - and smart policy must move with it."

"Archaeologists at the #SizewellC development have uncovered a concentrated area of Roman industrial activity, shedding light on how the landscape was used nearly 2,000 years ago. The work, carried out by Oxford Cotswold Archaeology, took place during excavations for the Sizewell Link Road, which will bypass Middleton and Theberton. Although earlier finds in the area point to prehistoric and Anglo-Saxon occupation, this section is different. Here, the evidence points clearly to Roman industry."
