Mrs. Curtis-Thomas

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry how many nuclear stations there are; and how many will continue beyond 2020. [125586]

Mr. Timms

From the last published company information on expected station lifetimes, three of the UK's 19 stations are expected to operate beyond 2020, with six already closed. These are:

  • Heysham 2–2023
  • Torness—2023
  • Sizewell B—2035.
