Vision for Nuclear New Build EDF Energy intends to develop a nuclear power station at Hinkley Point C that will make a major contribution to the nation’s low carbon energy needs. The development, operation and ultimate decommissioning of the power station will be undertaken in a manner consistent with the highest standards of safety, reliability and sustainability.EDF Energy will strive to ensure that the inherent benefits of its investment in Hinkley Point C are captured in a way which maximises its practical contribution to the local and regional economy.EDF Energy will ensure that any significant adverse effects of the construction, operation or decommissioning of the power station are appropriately mitigated in a way which is environmentally responsible and sensitive both to the needs of the community and to the strategies of the relevant authorities.

Marine Ecology – potential impacts
• Construction- Physical damage to
habitats- Disturbance to habitats
and species- Changes in water
quality- Noise impacts
• Operation- Loss or damage to
habitats- Entrainment or
impingement on intake screens
- Water quality (temperature, flow, chemistry)
- Maintenance dredging- Noise impacts
