State-owned French company EDF, which is delivering new nuclear plants:
. . . . . . Hinkley,
. . . . . . Olkiluoto-3 and
. . . . . . Flamanville,
. . . have been beset by cost overruns and delays.
Sir Edward Davey,
. . . he former energy secretary,
. . . who signed off on the Hinkley Point C nuclear power plant, said
. . . the lower cost of renewables today,
. . . means “the economics have clearly gone away” from the project.
A damning report, from the National Audit Office, warning that the
. . . Hinkley contract had forced consumers into a
. . . “risky and expensive project”.
