How can nuclear and tidal energy help prevent a UK electricity shortfall
“The whole philosophy from Hinkley Point C to Sizewell C is no change, it’s pure replication. It’s a repetition of a design that’s already been built within the UK regulatory environment,” he says. “That’s where the opportunities for efficiencies start to come; if we build a third site, those efficiencies will be magnified even further.”
Nuclear is already on the government’s plans for the energy transition - could and should tidal be? I discussed this with some experts on New Civil Engineer - you can read it here.
