Legal and General Capital - the investment arm of the financial services company - has said it is not backing French energy firm EDF’s Sizewell C plans, which involve building two new reactors at the site.

Responding to enquiries by The Independent, an L&G spokesperson said: “As we transition to a net zero carbon world, Legal & General Capital is playing an important role in investing in renewable infrastructure and clean technology across low-carbon heat, transport, and power generation.

Hinkley:
The UK government has guaranteed EDF £92.50 for each megawatt hour of electricity produced - a price which will help EDF recoup the rising cost of the project, but one which is at least twice as high as the cost of wind-generated power, offering poor value to consumers.
Wind power generation cost as low as £44 per megawatt hour at auction last year.

L&G’s boss Nigel Wilson described Hinkley in 2016 as a “£25bn waste of money”.

He told BBC 5 live: “The world is moving towards clean green and cheap energy. Solar, wind will play a much more important role. Hinkley is probably the most expensive energy we can think of right across Europe. That’s really bad for society.”

Well done L&G !!
