Our mission
Delivering trusted and innovative nuclear services and solutions.
What we do
Nuclear power, alongside renewables, has an important role in the clean energy transition by generating reliable, low-carbon electricity. As a leader in uranium enrichment, Urenco supports this transition by providing a key step in the production of fuel for nuclear power plants.
Our customers typically supply us with natural uranium, which we then process into a form that can be used in nuclear power plants using centrifuge technology designed and deployed by Urenco.
Through the flexible operation of this technology, we are also able to provide other products and services. We are investing in advanced fuel production for the next generation of nuclear reactors, we produce isotope products with medical, industrial and research applications and we have subsidiaries dedicated to responsible nuclear stewardship.
We have a proud history as a leading nuclear services technology company spanning over 50 years.
