HPC Agreement – What it means for Sizewell

A kick start for the UK’s new nuclear programme


Overview of EDF partners on HPC project

Partner of EDF for the past 30 years through

co-investment with on the Taishan EPR and the Daya Bay nuclear power station

Major nuclear corporation, 100% owned by the

Government of the People’s Republic of China

Partner of EDF for thepast 30 years

Leading Chinese nuclear operator and developer,

100% owned by the Government of the People’s

Republic of China

Signifi cant EPR designand construction experience

with EDF through involvement in FLA3

and Taishan

Key supplier of EDF. 83% owned by French

government

57% of the project’s construction value could be spent in the UK, building skillsand expertise which will help the country win a greater share of nuclear

programmes nationally and globally

Sizewell C Post-Stage 1 Activity


SZB Outage Survey• Approx. 1,100 additional people working at Sizewell B.

• Some of the outage workforce are not from the area (Non-Home-Based).

• Helps understand impacts of a NHB workforce to the area including businesses.

• Helps understand where NHB workers choose to stay and how they travel to site.


Groundwater Monitoring

• Borehole drilling in ten locations within and around the SSSI.

• Monitoring will provide us with important information about groundwater conditions.


Ecology Surveys

• Surveys are being carried out around the Sizewell estate and AONB.

• Bat survey on Sizewell C site.

• Bird surveys along the coast.

• Studies will inform the ecological assessment.


Coastal Processes Radar

• Gathering wave information between Minsmere Sluice and Thorpeness, up to 3km from shore.

• Data will be used to understand how the local seabed and shore responds to waves under different weather conditions.

• This will support design work on the sea defences and jetty.


Design and Engineering

• Preliminary design of access bridges across SSSI.

• Developing sea defence designs.

• Concept design of Jetty (MOLF).

• Investigating ground conditions for possible rail routes.


Offshore Surveys

• Test drilling to confirm geological conditions for the cooling water tunnels and intake structures.

Sizewell C – Transport andAccommodation Update

NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED


Developing the Transport and Accommodation StrategyOur aim is to reduce the potential traffic pressure caused by workers and freight travelling to and from the Sizewell C development site.

Socio-economic analysis

Workforce profile

No. of beds required

Campus site detail

Quantity of freight by rail

Residual quantity of freight by road

With development transport model

No. of ‘people’ on road

Quantity of freight by sea

Road improvements

Park and ride site detail

Potential sources of materials

Rail route options

Jetty design

No. of non-home based workers


Accommodation Strategy

• Single campus: significant efficiency benefit of a single campus.

• Campus management: Concentrated workforce allows creation of a more attractive campus environment which should encourage occupancy levels.

• Workforce management: Operational efficiency.

• Community Safety and Community Cohesion.

• Minimising traffic impact.
