AtkinsRealis Group Appointed To Support EDF and Sizewell C Across UK Nuclear Portfolio

By

AtkinsRealis Group (ATRL.TO) has been appointed by EDF (Electricite de France) and Sizewell C Limited to a broad Professional Services framework, the company said on Tuesday.

"The framework ensures AtkinsRealis will continue to support EDF as a trusted delivery partner during a vital transition period as some of its existing plants enter vital life extension programs, others shift towards the end of operational life, and as Hinkley Point C prepares for operations as the UK's first large-scale reactor for a generation," said the company.

The inclusion of Sizewell C will also help to "realize the full benefits of replication as the AtkinsRealis team applies the knowledge and experience from Hinkley Point C to the new build program" as it enters construction phase, the company added.

Under the new Professional Services Framework, AtkinsRealis will support EDF Nuclear Services, EDF Nuclear Operations, Hinkley Point C and Sizewell C across more than 60 different technical and project delivery disciplines, from design and engineering to program management and consultancy, the company said.

"EDF has been a major client to our Nuclear business for over two decades, and this framework is a continuation of the vital work we have been delivering across operational and new build programs for EDF Energy and Sizewell C in the UK," said Ian L. Edwards, CEO of AtkinsRealis. "Our proven ability to provide a breadth of capabilities strengthens our role as a strategic partner with EDF and reinforces our leading position as a truly end-to-end engineering services provider in the global nuclear industry."
