Abstract

These notes review the experience of individuals employed in the engineering and project management of the UK’s programmes of gas-cooled projects, as lessons from that formative period may be relevant to re-establishing a nuclear power programme in this country. The dominant lesson is that to be economic and safe to operate each new project should be planned and controlled by an organization which has the engineering and managerial capacity and authority to integrate and control the design and supply of the whole project.
