Hinkley Point C will 'categorically' go ahead, with FID in May
Vincent de Rivaz, the CEO of EDF Energy, said today that the Hinkley Point C project will "clearly and categorically" go ahead. Giving evidence to the UK parliament's Energy and Climate Change Committee, de Rivaz confirmed that, according to the French economy minister, the repeatedly postponed final investment decision on the project to build two EPR units at the site in Somerset, England would finally be made "by early May". He would not himself give a specific date and said the decision would be made "very soon".http://www.world-nuclear-news.org/NN-Hinkley-Point-C-will-categorically-go-ahead-with-FID-in-May-23031601.html
