Site Name: Sizewell A

Sizewell A is located near Leiston in Suffolk and is a twin reactor site. The site became fully operational in 1966 and shut down on 31 December 2006 after 40 years of safe, compliant generation. The site is currently decommissioning.

Sizewell A is one of three Magnox sites which has a neighbouring site. The three neighbouring EDF AGR sites, along with four other EDF AGR sites, are due to transfer to Magnox.

Bradwell’s care and maintenance phase is being managed by Sizewell A.  The team conducts annual inspections at Bradwell and maintains a 24-hour security presence on site.
