# COMECA and EDF Energy: Hinkley Point C contract is signed

 Published by [Lucie Texerot](https://blog.comeca-group.com/en/author/lucie-texerot) on  Nov 29, 2017, 2:41:52 PM

On 29 November, COMECA announces it had signed a contract worth €130 million with EDF Energy for the Hinkley Point C (HPC) nuclear power station project in the UK, whose commissioning is scheduled for 2025. The documents were signed in Bristol by Stuart Crooks, Hinkley Point C Managing Director and Gaël de la Rochère, CEO of COMECA.

The Group will design, manufacture and deliver power distribution systems that will feed the entire Hinkley Point C site, the first nuclear power station to be built in the UK for a generation.  Electrical equipment supplied will have to meet specific standards and detailed specifications, linked to the stringency of the nuclear sector: significant seismic events resistance up to 6g, short-circuit resistance up to 100,000A…

*« This contract is one of the biggest contracts ever signed by COMECA, who will do everything in its power to make a success of this ambitious project, for the UK, for EDF Energy and for our Group»* declared Gaël de la Rochère, CEO of COMECA.
