As the final investment decision for Hinkley Point C was delayed again to May, news came of delays elsewhere in the UK nuclear new-build plans. The Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) held a crunch meeting in January with senior management at Westinghouse, the company behind the nuclear reactor planned for Moorside in Cumbria, to address “delays and quality concerns” in submissions to the reactor licensing process. Now the target completion date for so-called generic design acceptance (GDA) of the AP1000 reactor, to be built for NuGen near Sellafield, has been put back to March 2017.
