Somerset Chamber has partnered with EDF to deliver a number of free site tours of Hinkley Point C. The event will also include networking, a presentation and the opportunity to explore the Hinkley Point Visitor Centre.
EDF is building the first new nuclear power station in the UK for a generation at Hinkley Point in Somerset.
Hinkley Point C will be the first new nuclear power station in a generation and over the next 18 months alone, Britain’s largest low-carbon energy project at Hinkley Point C will create 3,000 new jobs it approaches peak construction, with around 15,000 people expected to be building the new power station.
The growth will create new opportunities for local people to get better skills and jobs with the project.
If you are interested in seeing how the build is progressing or to understand more about the infrastructure involved in the build, book now!
