Renewal of the French Nuclear Industry

The French State has announced a series of guidelines to renew the French nuclear industry. AREVA and its governing authorities will work in complete cooperation with EDF on the roadmap as it is defined, notably on the terms of an agreement for a global strategic partnership and the conditions for EDF to take a majority stake in the capital of AREVA NP.

For entirety of the company’s businesses, the urgency for the competitiveness measures remains. As has always been the intention of the company, these efforts must be the subject of an exemplary social dialogue, and the discussions with the social partners will continue. AREVA will study the impact of the French State’s guidelines on the information-consultation procedures which were planned for the month of June.
