Reactors Training Center

Framatome actively invests in the development of new technologies to meet the future demands of next-generation nuclear reactors, during both design and operation. We offer a comprehensive range of engineering services and solutions for advanced reactors including fuel design and manufacturing, component design and manufacturing, licensing and engineering, as well as integration of future operation, maintenance and decommissioning activities. Framatome Advanced Reactor solutions and technology bricks contribute to the value and development of future nuclear applications for a safer and cleaner world.

With 50+ years of experience in the nuclear industry, we are dedicated to move forward from current NPP to smart plants, smart fleets, smart energy and invulnerable NPPs, with an approach similar to that adopted in the navy with smart ships and smart naval forces. From heavy components to smart I&C, embedded cyber-secured solutions and data analytic solutions, we have solutions applicable in naval and defense sectors.

Engineering safe and high-performing nuclear steam supply systems (NSSS) requires a significant level of expertise and a design based on advanced technologies and optimized solutions. Framatome offers these areas of excellence for all new projects. Our services portfolio includes the design of the NSSS main components, scientific code computing and safety analyses. Our teams bring a wealth of experience in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and advanced expertise in safety analyses, probabilistic safety assessment and risk analysis.

In order to optimize your asset, you can decide to run your plant beyond its designated lifetime. Safety being a priority this decision is driven by the need for low carbon and competitive energy. Framatome works closely with you on your plant’s long-term operations strategy, covering license renewal, aging and asset management, modernization and upgrades, and other long-term challenges.

You have to demonstrate that your plant’s systems and functions are fulfilling the requirements of safety authorities. Framatome provides safety analysis solutions to support you when reviewing your design requirements, including customer training. We also provide emergency preparedness, including emergency power supply, radioprotection, and fire protection solutions and expertise. In addition, we either propose safety system upgrades or demonstrate that the current design meets all new requirements.
