Magnox Electric

From Graces Guide

Created in 1996 to take ownership of the Magnox power stations from Nuclear Electric and Scottish Nuclear.

The other nuclear power stations of these two companies, seven advanced gas-cooled reactor (AGR) stations and one pressurized water reactor (PWR) station, were transferred to a separate company, British Energy, which was then privatised in 1996.

In January 1998 Magnox Electric came under the control of another government-owned company, British Nuclear Fuels, as 'BNFL Magnox Generation', operated and managed by US based Energy Solutions through its June 2007 acquisition of the BNFL subsidiary - Reactor Sites Management Company.
