I can't remember which thread this was being discussed in before, but looks like this will be announced in the budget today, and then presumably Sizewell C will get the nod, closely followed by something at the site at Wylfa

There was a similar story in the FT saying costs would be "Front Loaded" to bill payers.

The Bill to enable regulated asset base funding for new nuclear builds had its second reading in Parliament and passed on a majority of 275. Looks like Sizewell C and probably Wylfa Newydd might be back on the agenda. Maybe Bradewell B too?
