Nuclear Industry Association

📣 Over 100,000 people are employed across the UK civil nuclear industry for the first time in history 👷‍♀️

Today the Nuclear Industry Association launched our 2026 Jobs Map. This year’s figures show a 67% growth in the civil nuclear workforce over the past five years, from 61,371 jobs in 2021 to a record 102,606 in 2026. 📈

🏗️ This unprecedented employment has been driven by construction at Hinkley Point C and decisive government investment in @sizewellc, as well as the development of Europe’s first Small Modular Reactors with Project Gwyndod in North Wales.

The Government must now ensure the swift implementation of nuclear regulation reform, to unlock future projects and continue this monumental growth of the nuclear workforce.

We are pleased to announce that Sir Alex Chisholm, Chair of EDF UK, will join us at Nuclear2026 to reflect on a landmark year for @edfenergy and how the UK can shape the future of civil nuclear. ⚡

From extending the operating lives of Heysham 1 and Hartlepool to 2030, to securing a pathway for Sizewell B to generate until 2055, EDF is working to maintain the UK’s existing nuclear capacity while progressing the next generation of nuclear power.

🏗️ In his update, Alex will look ahead to the delivery of Hinkley Point C, and what it will take to turn the UK’s nuclear ambitions into lasting progress for energy security, jobs and the supply chain.

How can we change public perceptions of nuclear energy? ⚛️

Join us on the first day of Nuclear2026 to hear from Dr Tim Gregory, nuclear scientist, TV presenter, and author of 'Going Nuclear: How the Atom Will Save the World'.

Tim will explore how we can challenge misconceptions, address public concerns and sustain the growing momentum behind nuclear.

As the UK enters a new era of nuclear investment and development, building public trust and support will be vital to turning ambition into reality.
