Great British Nuclear (GBN) acquired the sites at Wylfa (in Ynys Mon / Anglesey) and Oldbury-on-Severn (Gloucestershire) in 2024.

We will work with GBN to assess options for new nuclear at Wylfa, although decisions have yet to be taken on projects and technologies to be deployed. GBN is pushing forward with its Small Modular Reactor technology selection process ahead of final decisions in the spring, and we will set out our plans in due course.
