11. Nuclear Research 2. Drivers 2009

12. UK Nuclear future prior to 2008 Nuclear

13. Nuclear is part of the answer Nuclear Energy is zero carbon Nuclear Provides Energy Security Current capacity 11GWe 15-17% baseload Replacement equals 6-10 new PWRs 3-10 stations Higher baseload possible 40% Nuclear?

14. Nuclear Facts – what it means for skills Worlds first Commercial Reactor at Calder Hall 1956 Programme trebled following the Suez crisis Now 17% of power generation (11GWe) Now 19 reactors and 1 will remain in operation by 2023 11 proposals for SSA (4+1 in North) Built up over half a century, the UK has capacity and capability to deliver all aspects of the nuclear cycle

15. LMI Aims Deliver the skills picture Understand what skills are required and when
