Clean-up for Sizewell A will take 100 years

摘要

Sizewell a, one of Britain's oldest nuclear power stations, is to be decomis-sioned. The work will cost at least £870 million and will take 100 years to complete. Details of the clean-up project at Sizewell A in Suffolk are a sharp reminder of nuclear power's complex and expensive liabilities. They follow Prime Minister Tony Blair's apparent endorsement this month of a new generation of up to 20 nuclear power stations.
