Sizewell C is set to become one of the most significant energy projects in the United Kingdom’s history. Designed as a 3.2 GW nuclear power station, it will provide clean electricity for decades to come, delivering around 7% of the UK’s total power supply while directly supporting the country’s Net Zero ambitions.
This next-generation project represents more than just energy production. It stands as a cornerstone of Britain’s energy transition, strengthening energy security while reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
Gutor’s Role: Reliable Backup for Decarbonization
At the heart of any nuclear project lies a need for absolute reliability. Gutor has been awarded the Sizewell C contract to supply over 30 industrial UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) systems. Each UPS is engineered to meet stringent nuclear standards and designed to safeguard critical systems, ensuring uninterrupted operation across the plant’s lifetime.
Our UPS solutions provide:
-
Reliability at Scale: More than 30 systems supporting essential operations.
-
Built to Nuclear Standards: Certified to meet the rigorous demands of nuclear safety.
-
Long-Term Assurance: Designed to run reliably throughout decades of service.
These systems may not always be visible, but they are essential. Reliable backup is what enables decarbonization to move from concept to practice, keeping vital infrastructure secure, stable, and trusted.
A Project of Global Significance
For the UK, Sizewell C is more than just an energy plant; it is an investment in long-term sustainability and resilience. For Gutor, being part of this project underscores our role as a trusted global partner in secure power solutions.
We are proud to support Sizewell C in delivering safe, low-carbon energy for generations to come.

What is Sizewell C?
Located on the Suffolk coast, Sizewell C will be built alongside the existing Sizewell B station. Once complete, it will:
-
Generate enough electricity to power six million homes.
-
Avoid around 9 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions each year.
-
Create thousands of jobs during construction and operation, supporting local communities and the UK supply chain.
-
Deliver clean baseload power, providing a stable complement to intermittent renewables like wind and solar.
This next-generation project is not only about energy production, it is about energy security, sustainability, and resilience for the UK over the long term.
