Hinkley Point C: New update as construction ramps up
A new video update has been shared today into the construction of the nuclear power station
We've been given a sneaky peek 'behind the scenes' as construction continues for the new Hinkley Point C nuclear power station.
After last year’s successful dome lift, the next phase is all about installing the first nuclear reactor, the steam generators and the world’s largest turbine.
In the new video update, we now know that the engineers are getting ready to install much of the heart of the station.
This all comes after the "Dome Lift" last year, when the reactor building roof was lifted in place.

The film, goes behind the scenes as around 12,000 people work to build and fit out the power station.
It takes you on a journey, miles below the seabed.
In the video, you can see the final stages of the tunnels that will supply cooling water to the station, as well as the work being done to fit the miles of cables, pipes and equipment and showcases the 50-metre-tall Turbine Hall, destined to house the world's largest Arabelle turbine.
More than £5 billion has been spent with companies across the South West, with 3,800 British businesses supporting the project. 8,000 people have received training at the project's three training Centres of Excellence.
Hinkley Point C will provide 6 million homes with reliable, low-carbon energy and will be vital in helping Britain achieve net zero and stronger energy security.
