Calder hall was built in 3 years to do what ??
Although the station was promoted as generating electricity too cheap to meter, it produced relatively little during its working life. Calder Hall’s capacity of 1,96MW was far less than the 1,200MW output of the Sizewell B modern reactor.
Calder Hall was in fact primarily intended to produce plutonium for the UK’s atomic weapons programme. Producing electricity for the domestic market was a sideline for the plant.
Get educated.
