EDF agrees £100MM for new Hinkley nuclear reactor impact deal
Somerset councils and EDF Energy have signed a landmark agreement which will deliver nearly £100 million for local communities to mitigate the impact of the proposed new nuclear power station at Hinkley Point C.

The breakthrough settlement, between EDF Energy, West Somerset, Sedgemoor District and Somerset County Councils, resolves all the Councils’ principal issues relating to the application to build and operate Britain’s first nuclear power station for more than 20 years. It follows months of detailed discussions on how best to reduce the impact of the development on the local community.
