New briefing from Corporate Watch on the UK nuclear industry

BROKEN PROMISES: WHY THE NUCLEAR INDUSTRY WON'T DELIVER
Throughout its fifty year history, Britain's nuclear industry has consistently failed to deliver on its promises.

Now, less than five years after the financial collapse of British Energy, the UK's commercial nuclear generator, the public, parliament, and the financial markets are being asked once again to believe that a new generation of nuclear power stations can produce electricity safely and without government subsidy. And once again, there is good reason to believe that the industry's predictions are as spurious as in previous decades.

As the nuclear industry pushes for a new generation of nuclear power stations in the UK Broken Promises gives a brief history of nuclear power in the UK and outlines the key corporate players attempting to build new nuclear power stations.
