The Hinkley Point nuclear project is Britain's first nuclear power plant in two decades and it is also a flagship project of China-Britain cooperation. It is co-built by China General Nuclear Power Corp., which has a one-third stake, and French state-owned company EDF.

The British government decided to approve it on Sept.15, 2016. Now Construction is underway on the main part of Hinkley Point C project.

CGN and EDF are cooperating on another two British nuclear projects at Sizewell and Bradwell. The Bradwell project will use the Hualong One design, China's third-generation nuclear reactor design, if the technology passes British regulatory inspections. Now the Hualong One design has completed the first phase of assessment and is progressing to the next phase.
