Horizon/Hitachi deal completed
Japanese electronic giant Hitachi confirms it has completed its purchase of Horizon Nuclear Power, which operates Anglesey's Wylfa Power Station.
As part of the deal, the companies will make "a multi-billion pound investment" in training engineers and staff for a new nuclear power station on the island.
Horizon says 6,000 construction jobs will be created, with 1,000 people employed when the new plant is completed.
Horizon was created in 2009, as a joint venture between E.ON UK and RWE npower.
