UK National Supplier Day event, London, 13 September  

We would like to draw your attention to EDF Energy’s New Nuclear Opportunities website www.edfenergy.com/newnuclearopportunities.

As you may know, EDF Energy intends to build four new UK EPR reactors in the UK, with the first two at Hinkley Point, followed by two reactors at Sizewell. The website provides information on how you can find out more about getting involved in our plans for nuclear new build and how to register your interest in attending the forthcoming UK National Supplier Day event in London on Monday 13 September 2010.

Key speakers will provide an update of the current position for Hinkley Point and Sizewell C, and ensure that UK companies are aware of the opportunities that those investment plans will create. Presentations in the afternoon will be led by key EDF Energy staff from engineering and will focus on the codes and standards to be used to help companies understand the requirements for working on the project.

All of us depend on reliable, affordable and clean supplies of energy. Delivering long-term investment to achieve this is one of the biggest challenges facing the energy industry as a whole. EDF Energy's aim is to play a leading role in UK nuclear new build, alongside investment programmes in other forms of low carbon generation.

EDF's next event will be held at the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre, Broad Sanctuary, London, SW1P 3EE and will take place from 9am to 6:30pm, with registration from 8am. If you are interested in attending this event please register your interest by 3 September at www.edfenergy.com/newnuclearopportunities
