As a business we are concerned about; the destructive impacts on the local economy. Tourism brings us clients who will be put Off visiting. the access to our materials deliveries to run the business with the huge swell of traffic in our rural area it will bring. the economic benefits it would bring to Suffolk are questionable it will damage Suffolk’s existing local economy which we rely upon Working from home we are concerned about internationally-protected habitats; it is not the solution to net-zero, being a slow and expensive “bridge to nowhere” that would suck resources away from investment in renewables and hydrogen storage. EDF cannot say how much SZC will cost or be funded, but wants consumers to pay for it through a “nuclear tax”. The location in “blue” Suffolk will not help level up the UK. Sizewell C is mired in controversy through China’s involvement.
