The station consists of two advanced gas-cooled reactors (AGR) capable of producing a peak rating of 1,364 MWe.
The station will continue to generate until at least 2028 at which point it will transition to the defueling stage of its lifecycle which will provide many years of challenging but awarding projects for the right candidate.
