Westinghouse is planning a nuclear renaissance that will use Britain as a springboard to supply reactors to the whole of Europe, creating more than 15,000 jobs here.
Stephen Tritch, president and chief executive of the US-based reactor maker, which is owned by Toshiba, told The Times that the UK was one of four major markets on which Westinghouse was concentrating because of the Government's stated intention to develop a fleet of new-generation nuclear power stations. - The Times
A small British company that pioneered the idea of individuals and companies "offsetting" their climate change emissions has been bought by JPMorgan, one of the world's largest financial organisations.
ClimateCare, which was set up 11 years ago as a one-man enterprise working from a bedroom in Oxford, now employs nearly 40 people in five countries, but is expected to grow as JPMorgan expands its carbon credit business to more than 60,000 corporate clients around the world. - The Guardian

A major expansion of Britain's nuclear power sector that could create 100,000 new jobs has been heralded by the Government.
