Mirion Technologies (NYSE: MIR), a leading provider of advanced
radiation safety solutions, today announced that it has been
awarded two significant contracts to support the Sizewell C
project, a new 3.2-gigawatt power station for Britain. Leveraging
EDF expertise and EPR (European Pressurised Reactor) technology,
Sizewell C will generate low-carbon electricity sufficient to power
approximately 6 million homes. The development, based in East
Suffolk, will mirror the design of the Hinkley Point C nuclear
power station currently under construction in the Somerset
region.
As a key supplier to nuclear power plants globally, Mirion
Technologies has demonstrated its capability and commitment to
delivering high-quality, reliable solutions for critical new power
stations.
“We are excited to be a part of the Sizewell C project, a
pivotal development in the commitment to a sustainable energy
future for the United Kingdom,” said Loïc Eloy, President,
Technologies Group at Mirion.
The October 2024 agreement for supply of Electrical Penetration
Systems (EPS) addresses crucial technology to enable secure passage
of cables through containment walls of the reactor, providing a
reliable seal and uninterrupted electrical circuits even in
unexpected situations. Mirion EPS solutions help ensure the safe
containment of the reactor building while enabling the flow of
information from inside to the outside of the reactor.
Earlier this year, in May 2024, Mirion Technologies was awarded
the contract for Boron Meter Systems. These systems are essential
for measuring boron concentration in water, a critical factor in
controlling nuclear reaction levels within light water nuclear
power plants.
An Ongoing Partnership
This partnership allows Mirion Technologies to leverage
extensive experience in nuclear technology in tandem with the
Sizewell C team to ensure the success and reliability of this
significant venture.
“We have confidence in Mirion’s ability to deliver top-end
systems that integrate seamlessly with advanced EPR technology and
replicate Hinkley Point design,” stated Fernando Tiefensee,
Programme Manager at Sizewell C. “This partnership underscores our
mutual commitment to advancing safe, reliable energy solutions and
solidifies our role in helping achieve the United Kingdom's energy
generation goals.”
“We are eager to continue our collaboration, contributing to
sustainable and reliable energy solutions for the future,” added
Loïc Eloy of Mirion.
