The numbers depend on the choice of design, and the extent of off-site prefabrication of components. Our current estimate, based on building two units, is that the on site workforce could be up to 5,000 at the peak of activity. However, this does depend on the approach to construction. During operation, we estimate that between 600 and 900 full time jobs would be created. For a single unit, the construction workforce would be around 2,000, again dependent on the approach to construction. During operation, there would be between 350 to 450 full time jobs created.
