Sizewell C, £250M - Greenwash

Posted: 19th October 2021


 


 Developers of the Sizewell C nuclear power station have pledged £250m to
mitigate its impact, but a council said it still had concerns. Measures
include £78m for an independent environmental body to enhance the Suffolk
coast’s landscape. Humphrey Cadoux-Hudson, Sizewell C managing director,
said he was “determined that the local communities will benefit” from the
power station. But Suffolk County Council said the plans had not “gone
quite far enough” The examination phase of plans for the £20bn nuclear
facility plans has concluded, with interested parties setting out their
positions. A report will now be written by the Planning Inspectorate, with
the government making a final decision, likely to be in April, reported the
Local Democracy Reporting Service.
