Framatome signs contracts with Sizewell C
French nuclear developer Framatome is slated to deliver key equipment for Sizewell C Ltd.’s two large reactors planned for the United Kingdom’s Suffolk coast.
The agreement, reportedly worth multiple billions of euros, was announced this week and will involve Framatome from the design phase until commissioning. The company also agreed to a long-term fuel supply deal. Framatome is 80.5 percent owned by France’s EDF and 19.5 percent owned by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.

NIFS (National Institute for Fusion Science) Atomic and Molecular Numerical Database is introduced. Atomic and molecular data of various collision processes in plasma are collected and input to the database. The database is accessible via internet and data can be retrieved by querying an element name, an ionic stage, or other conditions. Numerical data are shown as a table and a graph which can be downloaded as a PDF file. Our other data activities on data compilation, evaluation, and production are also introduced.
