About Hunterston B Visitor Centre
Due to Coronavirus our Visitor Centre will remain closed for the rest of 2020. All site tours have been suspended and our exhibition centre remains closed, we are also unfortunately unable to take any forward bookings at this time. We will review our opening arrangements towards the end of the year and will update our website with further information.
We look forward to welcoming back all our visitors when we have returned to normal business.
One of only two nuclear power stations in Scotland, Hunterston B generates enough low carbon electricity to power approximately 1.5 million homes.
This visitor centre was opened by Scottish Energy Minister Fergus Ewing in August 2012. It has been awarded a 5 star rating from Visit Scotland, and in March 2016 received a Silver Award from the Green Tourism Board.
