🚀 Framatome achieves new critical U.S. NRC approval in development of advanced nuclear fuel technology     We are proud to announce that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has approved a license amendment, allowing #Framatome to transport fresh nuclear fuel assemblies with U-235 enrichments up to 8% weight. This regulatory milestone strengthens our ability to deliver innovative fuel solutions to light water reactor operators across the U.S.   🔑 With this approval, Framatome takes a significant step forward in advancing nuclear technology, contributing to safer, more reliable, and economically viable electricity generation.   💬 “This is a major step toward our commitment to be reload ready with higher enriched and higher burnup fuel by 2027 for the current nuclear fleet,” said Lionel GAIFFE, Senior Executive Vice President, Fuel Business Unit at Framatome. “We appreciate the support from the NRC in our initiative to deliver advanced fuel products to the industry, and this regulatory milestone further demonstrates our leadership.”   As part of our Advanced Fuel Management program, Framatome continues to lead the way in developing cutting-edge fuel technologies to meet the evolving needs of the nuclear industry. This new approval reinforces our commitment to providing fuel that offers greater operational flexibility and enhances plant economics. 👉 Read the Press release here to find out more: https://lnkd.in/g9mgQjQX    #Framatome #Innovation #NuclearEnergy #AdvancedFuelTechnology #NuclearFuelSolution #CleanEnergy #Sustainability

Generating a future beyond limits. ⚡ Last week, the Nuclear Technology Academy kicked off their 2024 fall academic semester at Central Virginia Community College.📚 Two of our returning technicians spoke to the new cohort about what they can expect as a Framatome employee taking courses at CVCC! Each semester, the Academy Technicians rotate between taking courses at CVCC, and deployment to Framatome sites both domestic and international - all while getting paid! #Framatome #FramatomeCareers #Nuclear #CVCC #LifeatFramatome #EnergizetheFuture

A future fueled by bold energy!💥 Our Richland, WA interns geared up recently to tour our nuclear fuel manufacturing facility! These bright students had the opportunity to learn first-hand about our pellet and powder production, uranium recovery processes and more. #Framatome #LifeAtFramatome #EnergizetheFuture #Nuclear #RichlandWA

We're proud to team up with electrical protection industry leader, Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories (SEL) to bring qualified protection solutions for safety and non-safety nuclear applications. Learn more in this upcoming webinar. 

Fueling the future! 🔥 Did you know that a single pellet of uranium fuel produces as much energy as about 1 ton of coal? At our site in Richland, WA, our experts are leading the way in innovative fuel design and fabrication, so we can all power on together!  #Framatome #FramatomeCareers #Nuclear #NuclearFuel #RichlandWA
