Hinkley Point C Liner Assemblies
Global Energy Group’s fabrication division completed the fabrication of six 5.3m diameter Liner assemblies, six vertical transport frames and six 6m diameter Casings for EDF’s Hinkley Point C nuclear power station on behalf of Balfour Beatty. The Liner assemblies are a crucial component of the nuclear power plant's cooling system.
GEG provided practical input into design concepts & development, including the fabrication of test rigs and trialling the manufacture of “first of kind” components for validation of the design.
In total approx. 3,200 tonnes of steelwork were manufactured, including significant forging, welding, and machining in Super Duplex material.
