Why are we not adding tidal energy to the UK’s grid, predictable 365 days of the year. Nuclear to slow to build, costs far too high, decades to build and generates dangerous waste that’s lasts thousands of years. We must back renewables plus storage. #MartinLewis

[Mark Hill @Mark_Hill1]

Never ending chequebook for nuclear

[Stop Sizewell C @StopSizewellC]

Wow, another increase to £136BN, but that's what #nuclear does "#Sellafield’s spending is so vast – with costs of more than £2.7bn a year – that it is causing tension with the Treasury, the report from the National Audit Office suggests"

@Busted Thoroughly enjoyed your Scarborough show a couple of weeks ago! 🤙🤙🤘

[Mark Hill @Mark_Hill1]

@AdrianRamsay We must scrap Sizewell C! Massive white elephant, would save £20billion+ , destruction of local nature/habitat and the issue of waste that is hazardous for thousands of years. Renewables, tidal and storage are the way forward

@MylesMcNulty @tallymoney It’s at their London office, registration for attending opened last month, might be worth you contacting them for info. Would be good to see you attend 👍

@dorfman_p Keep up the fight Paul 💪

[Mark Hill @Mark_Hill1]

100%

Sizewell C surely has to be cut from spending plans - it can’t do anything for our energy independence for another 20 years, can only increase energy bills not reduce them and by the time it’s operational the world will be facing a shortage of Uranium (no energy security there).

[Dr Paul Dorfman @dorfman_p]

Head of the Australian Energy Market Operator:

'Nuclear too slow to replace coal, and baseload “simply can’t compete” with wind and solar.'

Case closed.

[Unplug Nuclear Power @Unplugnukes]

Nukesters claim electricity in Finland is cheap because of the Olkiluoto nuke plant. Truth is hydro and wind are keeping the prices low only because Finland regularly kicks their nuke off the grid because it’s too expensive. https://t.co/ga0gW3ayQJ

[Together Against Sizewell C (TASC) @SayNo2SizewellC]

"We want to see the phase-out of nuclear energy, which is unsafe & much more expensive than renewables The development of nuclear power is too slow given the pace of action we need on climate They also create unmanageable quantities of radioactive waste..."

@energybants And yet 38 years later the clean up continues with swathes of land uninhabitable. Fukushima the same, nuclear power has no place in the modern world

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

Sizewell C Nuclear power plant will cost £20bn and produce 3,260MW of Nuclear power in 2035 or later.

326 10MW Wind Turbines would produce the same power and cost £3.26bn.

And they could be finished by 2026.

9 years sooner, less than 1/6th of the cost.

[Mark Hill @Mark_Hill1]

@energygovuk An utter waste of time and money, more pipe dreams where billions of tax payers money will disappear. Renewables plus storage must be the focus

[Mark Hill @Mark_Hill1]

@MartinSLewis The only party that is against nuclear power will be getting my vote, the Green Party. Hinckley point years behind and billions over budget, Sizewell C license granted this week for construction on an eroding coastline, with no solution to the water supply it requires,

[Robert Redmayne Hosking 🎤🔥🌊🌿🌸🌼 @rhosking252]

"Should Nuclear power still be at the forefront of the green energy transition.....??????

Hardly.

The proven catastrophic consequences for mankind and the planet, are all too self evident........

When it goes badly wrong, nothing is the same ever again.

[Mark Hill @Mark_Hill1]

@jenkt1 @Natures_Voice @ChrisGPackham Absolutely devastating. A notable change in the aggressive push for nuclear from the top down. We must keep up the fight, nuclear power has no place in today’s world. We have better value, faster to build/install solutions for our power needs. Nuclear dirty legacy is not wanted!

[Mark Hill @Mark_Hill1]

Renewables plus storage #vrfb should be the focus going forward, not the white elephant that is nuclear

[Together Against Sizewell C (TASC) @SayNo2SizewellC]

Excellent opinion piece in EADT
"@TheGreenParty modelling shows that power can be reliably supplied, even on the increased scale needed, without any new nuclear capacity."

Battery storage parks come with a fire risk. Is there a safer option? https://t.co/APdHo0o5wh
