Former Wylfa Newydd boss now appointed to drive Traws B nuclear hopes in Gwynedd

A nuclear boss involved in trying to get Wylfa Newydd over the line has now been appointed to lead the development of a Traws B and other potential job creation projects on that location.

Welsh Government wants to regenerate the Trawsfynydd site in Gwynedd as a potential location for small modular reactors(SMRs) and other ventures like a research reactor producing vital medical isotopes.

Rolls-Royce is hoping to secure a number of sites for the roll out of a fleet of SMRs with potential locations at existing nuclear sites across the country, such as Trawsfynydd and Wylfa on Anglesey.
