I would like to register to be able to put my views when an application for Hinkley Point C is submitted or if it has already been submitted.

Advice given

Although we expect its arrival shortly, Hinkley Point C New Nuclear Power Station has yet to be submitted to the IPC and is currently still at the pre-application stage.

The decision whether or not the application will be accepted for examination will happen following a 28 day period from the day it is submitted. If the IPC accepts the application there will then be the opportunity to register your views by completing a relevant representation form. Making a relevant representation on the prescribed form allows an individual or organisation to participate in the examination.

Details about how and when to register will be publicised by the developer in local newspapers and via site notices near the main site, and also at the associated development sites. The IPC will also offer details about how to register and other project information on our website.

Further information on how to participate in the application process can be found in our advice notes. Advice Note 8.2: How to have your Say on a Major Infrastructure Proposal may be of particular interest. A link to the relevant section of our website is provided below.
