Supporting and investing in the communities of Suffolk and Norfolk

Sizewell C has the potential to bring lasting change for the better to East Suffolk. It will provide:

  • Around 2,600 local jobs during peak construction
  • £125 million per year into the local economy
  • £40 million per year during the 60 years of operation

We want to make sure we maximise the benefits of Sizewell C for all communities in East Suffolk. That's why we have developed wide-ranging plans to mitigate the local impact of the project. They include a funding package to support the environment, training and education, and local community groups.

Suffolk support for Sizewell C

We're not the only ones passionate about levelling up Suffolk and the East of England. We've heard from hundreds of ordinary local people who are equally keen to see more jobs, training and business opportunities in the area again, keeping people and families together. Listen to what a few of them had to say in this video.

Community benefits

Thousands of well-paid, highly-skilled jobs and training opportunities, direct and indirect financial investment into the local economy and community grants are just some of the ways Sizewell C will continue the good work Sizewell B has done to benefit its local communities.
