In response to Hinkley Point B nuclear power station in Somerset being transferred from EDF to the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority group (link), Tom Greatrex, Chief Executive of the Nuclear Industry Association, said:
“Hinkley Point B is a powerful example of the contribution nuclear power has made to this country: it generated more clean British power in its time than any other station in our history, and it provided good jobs and billions in investment for local communities.
“As the site moves into decommissioning, the skilled and expert workforce will continue to ensure the site is managed safely and responsibly while retaining the skills and capabilities we need for the future of the UK’s nuclear industry.”
