In August 2012 Pagefield was brought in to help strengthen EDF Energy's case for building a controversial proposed third nuclear power reactor at Sizewell in Suffolk, UK. It won the six-figure strategic comms account after a pitch process thought to have been initiated one year beforehand.
PR Week wrote that Pagefield "is expected to play a key role in the development of EDF’s narrative around the value of a new nuclear power reactor, liaising with the public, media and stakeholders such as the Environment Agency and local authorities. Partner Wendy Blair is handling the account. Mark Gallagher will provide senior-level strategic counsel. [1]
According to Pagefield's website in November 2012, Pagefield executive Rory Cronin is "spearheading EDF Energy’s new nuclear social media strategy". [2]
