The costs of building Sizewell C nuclear power station could cost households up to £19 a year on top of their electricity bills by the time it opens, according to the public spending watchdog.

Last year, the Government struck a deal with investors to push ahead with the power plant’s construction, to the cost of around £38 billion.
