Following the path the cooling water takes, Simon Parsons, Hinkley Point C 's Nuclear Island Area Director brings viewers under the seabed to see some of the most complex work within the project.
This project has contracts with 3,700 British companies as more than £5 billion has been spent with companies across the South West. When completed the nuclear power station will provide 6 million homes with reliable, low-carbon energy, playing a role in helping Britain achieve net zero and stronger energy security.
The next video will highlight the completed mechanical and electrical work to date, whilst showing the equipment that has been tested and installed.
