Hallo Frau @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu 👋
Der französische Energieversorger EDF hat die Fertigstellung des Atomkraftwerks #HinkleyPointC erneut verschoben. Der erste Reaktor soll nun erst 2030 in Betrieb gehen, fünf Jahre später als geplant!

Ed Davey? The coalition minister that gave the UK the world's most expensive power station ?

#TooCheapToMeter
Das britische AKW-Bauprojekt #HinkleyPointC verzögert sich und wird teurer. Wieder einmal. Wir wollen ja nicht sagen, dass wir’s damals schon gesagt haben, aber wir haben’s damals schon gesagt. #Atomkraft #AKW
AKW #HinkleyPointC erneut verschoben - auf 2030 mit davonlaufenden Kosten (35 bn Pfund, das sind 40 Mrd. €! 😱).
Macht nix, #Erneuerbare sind eh schneller, günstiger und echt klimaneutral. Schade nur um die Steuergelder. 🤷♀️
#Atomkraft: Sicher ist nur das Risiko

Huge thanks to the team for the warm welcome and for showing us how they’re helping build Britain’s energy future.

The village of #Cannington, near #Bridgwater, won't have to provide any additional homes on top of the Local Plan allocation before 2032, following the approval of its Neighbourhood Plan: www.bridgwatermercury.co.uk/news/2540496... #LDReporter #Somerset #A39 #HinkleyPointC
A planned 1,000-bed campus for #HinkleyPointC workers near the #M5 in #Bridgwater will have no "significant effects" on the environment, #Somerset Council has ruled: www.bridgwatermercury.co.uk/news/2540101... #LDReporter
🚨 Britain’s most expensive power station ever is 3 years late & £9bn over budget.
Hinkley Point C could power 7% of the UK — but at what cost? ⚡️💷
From delays to environmental impact, here’s the story:

Great news for the @sizewellc.bsky.social project as it reaches a Final Investment Decision.
Alongside #HinkleyPointC, the #nuclear project will help drive economic growth, strengthen our energy security and lower customer bills over the long term.
Additional parking for #HinkleyPointC workers will be created at #Bridgwater & Albion Rugby Club following this decision by #Somerset Council: www.bridgwatermercury.co.uk/news/2531158... #LDReporter
Läuft im Land der #Atomies. Was Vero, Rainer, Reiner, Björn und die Steffens (der Blaubraunen) für (BS-)Argumente diesmal ins Feld führen? 2022 war eine große Ausnahme. 2025 ist bereits die zweite in drei Jahren ;)
Was macht eigentlich #HinkleyPointC und wie geht es #Flamanville? Oh, wait ...
ICYMI, here's how soon we'll get a decision from #Somerset Council on new homes in #Cannington: www.somersetlive.co.... #LDReporter #HinkleyPointC
160 new homes could soon be built in #Cannington, within relatively easy reach of the #HinkleyPointC nuclear power station: www.somersetlive.co.... #LDReporter #Somerset
"[a] family of 5 was informed that their landlord intended to sell the home they'd lived in for six years. Just 3 miles away is #HinkleyPointC. Mum Megan says "all" her neighbours are construction workers at the new #nuclear power station"

Revised plans for 160 new homes a few miles from #HinkleyPointC have been submitted to #Somerset Council - with a decision is expected before #Christmas: www.somersetlive.co.... #LDReporter #Cannington
Here are the planned divisions for:
- #SheptonMallet and #Wells
- #Taunton
- The Polden Hills
- The Quantock Hills (including #Watchet, #Williton and #HinkleyPointC)

Maybe a long wait, UK just opened CFD auctions, which will not be announced before January 2026.
It's competitive but politically awkward.
"£77 per megawatt-hour for solar energy and £87 for wind energy " ,Far less than #HinkleypointC #Nuclear financial disaster.
#EDF one of those compensating for an overcharging "error"... does this mean they will compensate us for overcharging when their grossly expensive #nuclear power station builds #HinkleyPointC & #SizewellC massively overrun and overspend? 🤪

At work were discussing the $600b nuclear figure today & all agreed it is an underestimate, we are all experts btw @patskarvelas.bsky.social #auspol #election #engineersRock #HinkleyPointC

Selling the country's nuclear secrets for a quad bike, can we be trusted with Nuclear Technology? Are we serious enough?

If #SizewellC went ahead, thousands of workers from outside the area will need accommodation. If worker numbers increased - and at #HinkleyPointC they're going up to a staggering 15,000 - the people of Leiston/area will face years more pain.

Remember that French state auditors have advised #EDF NOT to take a Final Investment Decision at #SizewellC until they reduce their financial exposure at #HinkleyPointC - which doesn't seem to be happening anytime soon!

#StopSizewellC had a site tour of #HinkleyPointC yesterday and met up with representatives from County, Town and Parish Councils as well as our friends @stophinkley. All are aghast that numbers onsite will rise to 15,000! How can we believe #SizewellC's claim it only needs half that number?
