Hinkley Point C nuclear power station is on course to be the most

expensive ever built. Some achievement when the dubious honour of
‘world’s most expensive nuclear power plant’ belonged to a project
(Vogtle 3 & 4 in the US) where almost everything that could go wrong went
wrong. Regulators insisted on major design changes extremely late in the
day, important structural work had to be redone at great cost, and
Vogtle’s designer and initial project manager Westinghouse even filed for
bankruptcy during construction.
