Subject to planning of course.

We already have the Green Man

also Sizewell.
it had to be as the infrastructure is already on site, pwr cables,cooling water ect

Now maybe they can think about getting rid of all those blasted windmills that are cluttering up the sea bed?

How much is mooring at Bradwell?

I heard at that British Energy didn't want Bradwell, as cheaper and easier to build prefered option at Sizewell. But, that assumes it is BE that build it. Could be a French or even Russian company maybe.

Perhaps Bradwell will actually produce a decent amount of juice this time.

Last time it just about produced enough for the traffic lights in Maldon.

It'll need to. There are TWO sets of lights in Maldon now

I heard they were planning two new power stations at Bradwell - forward planning

So can we assume that the the possible marine protection zone is now binned?

I used to crew on one of the old smacks in the Blackwater.

The skipper told a story (from a long time ago) of how he came across a man with a geiger counter in the mud. The man told him that he wouldn't go wandering around too much if he were him.

Whether true or not I don't know.

I think nuclear power is a wonder of science, IF it is handled properly.

Sadly, it isn't very often.

Even in the decommissioning of Bradwell a few years ago they found a lake of toxic waste that was supposed to have a lid on it (according to Maldon and Burnham newspaper)

I don't know the answer, but EDF (aren't they French?) or anyone running a power plant is in it for the profit, and that does not bode well when it comes to safety.
My opinion only.

doubt it, cannot see the link between a new nuke and MCZ

Worked best when Dr No owned it in the early sixties.

Shame he sold up and went to the Bahamas.

would have thought that major construction including a new intake / outfall and the associated seabed disturbance would not sit comfortably in a zone where even anchoring is limited
