The Dome, Sizewell B Nuclear Power Station, Suffolk, England, UK, GB.


Sizewell B is the UK's only commercial pressurised water reactor (PWR) power station. Its single reactor was built and commissioned between 1987 and 1995, and first synchronised with the national grid on 14 Feb 1995. The main civil engineering contractor was John Laing plc.[7] The power station is operated by EDF Energy. The architectural design was carried out by YRM.[10] EDF's strategic target is for 20 year life extension for Sizewell B PWR, beyond the current accounting closure date of 2035.[11] This would mean the plant remaining in operation until 2055.
