AREVA strengthens its organization in Asia-Pacific

As part of its ACTION 2016 strategic action plan, the AREVA group is strengthening its organization in the Asia-Pacific region, where the energy market has the strongest growth prospects.

The creation of an Asia-Pacific Region* signals the Group’s determination to offer its customers and prospects a regional presence to more effectively promote its nuclear offering in reactors, fuel, treatment and recycling, while expanding its renewable operations.

More than 20% of AREVA’s sales revenue is already realized in Asia-Pacific.

The new region will be directed by Rémy Autebert.
