AN ‘End of Year’ film has been released by Hinkley Point C, offering a rare glimpse into work that happens after dark on Britain’s largest infrastructure project.
Hinkley C project construction director Rob Jordan takes viewers behind the scenes of the night shift for the nuclear power station build which keeps the site moving 24/7.
More than 14,000 people are working round the clock to deliver Britain’s first nuclear power station in more than 30 years.
About 4,600 companies from across Britain have also played their part and stand ready to deliver similar future projects, such as Sizewell C, in Suffolk, which is being modelled on Hinkley C.

Some of Hinkley C’s most impressive milestones happen at night.
In July, the world’s largest crane, Big Carl lifted the 245-tonne domed roof onto the second reactor building.
Four huge steam generators have also been installed, ready to use heat from the reactor to drive the Arabelle turbine.
With most buildings complete across the site, focus has shifted to the task of fitting them out with thousands of pipes, cables, and critical systems which will bring the station to life.
Every night, construction teams keep progress on track, supported by catering, cleaning, and emergency response crews who keep them safe.
Mr Jordan said: “This site never sleeps - just like the power station when it is finished.
“Our electricity will power Britain round the clock for decades to come.
“Night and day, winter to summer, rain or shine.
“Together, we are building an electric Britain.”
When complete, Hinkley Point C will generate enough low-carbon electricity to power six million homes for 60 years, helping to secure Britain’s energy future.
