When built, Sizewell C will generate low‑carbon electricity for at least 60 years, supplying over 6 million homes and supporting around 7% of the UK’s current electricity needs.

We are the first nuclear power station in the UK to be funded under the Regulated Asset Base (RAB) funding model Our shareholder is the UK Government, with equity partners La Caisse, Centrica, EDF and Amber Infrastructure.
