A planning application has been submitted for a new nuclear energy-focused facility on a brownfield site that was once part of the Berkeley nuclear power plant in south-west England. The site comprises a parcel of previously developed land which formed part of the wider Berkeley nuclear power station. The Berkeley nuclear power plant was home to two Magnox units that were shut down in the late 1980s after more than a quarter of a century of electricity generation. The nuclear licensed site on which the decommissioned reactors stand is not part of the science park. Stroud District Council will now determine the planning application.
