NESG July 16, 2009 New-Build Nuclear – A Review of Labour Market Research Una Borte –Market Analyst
UK Energy Future (without New-Build Nuclear) • 75 GWe Capacity • 63 GWe Peak • Baseload? Nuclear
UK Nuclear Legacy 1956 – 2008 1917 Ernst Rutherford • 1956 Calder Hall - world’s first • 21 Reactors - closed • 19 Reactors - in generation • 1 new PWR in 1995 • 1 Reactor beyond 2023 • 11GWe output • 15-17% baseload 2017 New-Build Nuclear ?
UK Nuclear Renaissance 2009+ ? Zero Carbon Energy Security Energy Density • New Nuclear Site Nominations • 11 (2009) • 12+ GWe • 2012 build start • 2017+ operation • Replacement ambition? • Higher baseload?
UK Nuclear Labour Market • Deliver the skills picture • Understand what skills are required and when
UK Civil Nuclear Industry & Workforce Workforce • Job Contexts • Skill Levels • Age Profile Sectors • Energy Production (BE, Magnox North) • Decommissioning (NDA/SLCs) • Fuel Processing (Urenco, Springfields, Thorp) • New Build (Scenarios) • Supply Chain Analysis • Current Establishment • Demand Projections • Attrition rates • Supply-Demand Analysis • Scenario Sensitivity • Skills Gaps
