About
This event has taken place.
As part of Women in Engineering day 2021, Sizewell C would like to invite you to virtually meet some top female engineers and scientists that work on the project. Sizewell C is the new nuclear power station planned for the UK and would help tackle climate change by delivering low carbon electricity to 6million homes and save 9m tonnes of Co2 every year compared to a gas station.
Britain needs to reach Net Zero by 2050 to do our bit to stop climate change. We need to build more renewable and nuclear power generation to help achieve this.
Mark International Women in Engineering Day with some of the awesome women working in nuclear power today, who knows maybe there could be an interesting future for you to develop your green skills within the industry.
