Sizewell C injects nearly £1bn of tax-payers’ money into East of England as construction hits two-year milestone.

 Sizewell C has awarded almost £1bn worth of contracts to businesses
across the East of England, as the project celebrates two years since
formal construction began on the Suffolk coast. The 3.2GW nuclear power
station – set to deliver 70% of its construction value to UK companies
and support tens of thousands of jobs nationwide – is committed to
investing £4.4bn in the East of England over the course of its build. This
contract milestone caps a hugely successful second year for Sizewell C,
highlighted by its Final Investment Decision last summer, which unlocked
£38bn of funding and made it the first majority British-owned nuclear
power station in more than 30 years.
