Our nuclear power stations

We own and operate eight nuclear power stations with a combined capacity of almost 9,000 megawatts. We operate two types of nuclear reactor: the advanced gas-cooled reactor (AGR); and a pressurised water reactor (PWR). Sizewell B is the only PWR nuclear power station in our portfolio.
