Why have you nominated Wylfa as a potential location for a new nuclear power station?
Wylfa is the site of an existing nuclear power station and is an excellent location for a potential new plant which would deliver much needed, low carbon, power generation. The population of Anglesey, along with political and business groups, have been supportive of the idea, and this is a very important consideration. Crucially, Anglesey also has a highly-skilled nuclear workforce and good cooling facilities. It also has vital infrastructure, including a connection to the national electricity grid. The Wylfa Peninsula is on a hard rock site providing excellent foundation conditions for a nuclear station and is sufficiently high above sea level to avoid serious flood risks.
