- Hinkley Point C has hit its biggest milestone yet on schedule. The completion of the base for the first reactor, known as “J-zero”, means that the construction of the nuclear buildings above ground can begin in earnest.
The final 9,000m³ of concrete was the largest concrete pour in the UK, beating a record set by the Shard in London. Reinforced with 5,000 tonnes of Welsh steel, the base was under construction by the UK-French joint venture of Bouygues-Laing O’Rourke for six months.

Sincerely hope this won't ever leak........ Chernobyl was once lauded as ''safe''.
it won't
don't worry!
Chernobyl was 40 years ago and was caused by a flaw in the reactor. This has been assessed by modern standards and built with modern tech. - there will be no flaws
