Swiss nuclear power and the case for long-term operation
Designed for 40 years but built to last far longer, Switzerland’s nuclear power plants have all entered long-term operation. Yet age alone says little about safety or performance. Through continuous upgrades, strict regulatory oversight, and extensive aging management, the country’s reactors are being prepared for decades of continued operation, in line with international practice.
United Engineers & Constructors, Inc and its legacy companies have served the power industry since 1905 and the commercial nuclear industry for more than 80 years. In the nuclear power sector, United provides engineering, procurement, construction, program management, modifications and upgrades, major component replacements, and advanced reactor and small modular reactor services. Through Imperia Engineering Partners, our wholly owned subsidiary, we also offer specialty engineering, advanced analytics and testing services. Together, we provide comprehensive EPC solutions – bundled or standalone to meet the industry needs. We deliver results that meet energy demands for today and for the future. We keep you powering ahead.
