Wylfa Newydd nuclear plant's fate 'affected by power station'

Plans to build a new nuclear power plant on Anglesey have a "slim to zero" chance of going ahead, an industry expert has claimed.

Independent consultant Mycle Schneider is a lead author of the annual World Nuclear Status report.

He said the Hinkley Point C project's difficulties would affect Wylfa Newydd's ability to attract investors.

But Horizon Nuclear Power said it was very confident the new power station would be delivered successfully.

Environment correspondent Steffan Messenger reports.
