Assystem has become a founding sponsor of Women in Nuclear UK to support the industry’s goal of reaching 40% of women in nuclear by 2030.

Assystem, as part of KAD Nuclear, will provide engineering and project management services to support the delivery of a major infrastructure programme, following a contract award from the Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO).

Only 19% of those studying engineering at university are women (19% in 2017/18) and this has a major impact on the percentage of women working in technical roles in the nuclear sector – with women today representing 22% of the workforce. 

Nuclear power will play a central role in the UK’s roadmap to Net Zero, which has been outlined in full this week following the publication of the Energy White Paper.  

Assystem has been selected to oversee the construction of the Akkuyu nuclear power plant (NPP) in Turkey, as part of a major international engineering deal at the end of a tender process conducted in compliance with the Unified Industry Procurement Standard of the State Atomic Energy Cooperation “ROSATOM”.
