UK Power Networks Services secures nuclear win at Sizewell C
UK Power Networks Services has been appointed to deliver the detailed design of the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system for the Construction Electrical Supplies (CES) at Sizewell C, marking a significant milestone in our growing presence within the UK nuclear sector.
This appointment reinforces the capability of our teams to deliver high‑integrity control systems for complex and safety‑critical environments, supporting one of the UK’s most important infrastructure programmes.
The scope of works covers the end‑to‑end SCADA design for the CES electrical network, enabling the safe and resilient supply of power during construction activities across the site.
Works include designing how the electrical network is controlled and monitored, covering:
- The main substation where electricity enters the site
- Smaller substations that distribute power around the site
- A secure communications network that connects all parts of the system
The infrastructure will also allow operators to oversee the power network in real time and safely control it remotely from an on-site control room.
This project highlights UK Power Networks Services’ ability to deliver reliable and safe control systems for complex, highly regulated environments like nuclear infrastructure. It also demonstrates the company’s expertise in bringing together electrical systems, communications, and cybersecurity into one complete solution.
