Dungeness Power Station - Definition and Overview

There are two nuclear power stations located near Dungeness in the south east of Kent, England.

  • Dungeness A is an old Magnox power station, nearing the end of its life.
  • Dungeness B is an Advanced Gas Cooled Reactor (AGR) power station.

Both stations were built by the Central Electricity Generating Board (a nationalised institution in the UK), but following privatisation they are now operated by two different companies (Magnox and British Energy respectively).
