Background
NuGen is a UK nuclear company owned by GDF SUEZ and Iberdrola.
Current activities
NuGen’s Moorside project focuses on the development of a new generation nuclear power station of up to 3.6 GW on land in West Cumbria, North West England.
- NuGen is set to pay for Copeland Council staff to do work for it to help pave the way for a planned nuclear power station. The aim of the proposed work is to progress an application for development order consent leading to construction but without prejudice to whether or not the Moorside reactors are built near Sellafield. A new National Infrastructure Directorate will decide on all new UK power station applications, including Moorside. But decisions will be made by the government body based on views from the councils, consultations and from prospective developers. Subject to Planning Performance Agreements being signed off around the end of June, NuGen will fund a legally-binding contract for a wide range of work to be done on its behalf by both Copeland and Cumbria County Council staff.
