Nuclear

UzAssystem is an active supporter of the fight against climate change and believes that nuclear power has a key role to play in helping Uzbekistan to decarbonize its economy.

Context & Challenges


The success of the ongoing energy transition will depend on our ability to meet the world’s growing energy demand while drastically reducing CO2 emissions. The success of the ongoing energy transition will depend on our ability to meet the growing demand for energy worldwide while drastically reducing CO2 emissions.

To support this growth, UzAssystem believes that nuclear power must be a cornerstone of the energy transition, as it is the only massive source of low-carbon energy that can reliably replace fossil fuels while meeting baseload electricity demands.

The nuclear sector must therefore keep on improving its competitiveness as well as strengthening its safety requirements by:

Developing new nuclear capabilities while optimising the planning & budget


Improving operating performance


Improving safety and security constantly


In 2015, the International Energy Agency's Technology roadmap concluded that "global capacity must more than double, with nuclear providing 17 percent of the global electricity generated in 2050, to meet the IEA's 2-degree scenario for the most effective and effective ways to limit global temperature." A central challenge for the nuclear industry is controlling delivery times and costs for new nuclear programs.

Nuclear operators can reduce operating costs and improve efficiency by taking advantage of the latest digital technologies. Digital control systems, combined with plant-wide sensors, allow operators to better understand plant status, optimise operating parameters and intelligently plan maintenance activities.

The nuclear facilities safety is a constant concern for the entire nuclear sector, and dictates a major part of the choices made from design to operation inclunding decommissioning. Strictly regulated and controlled by an independent authority, security & safety standards are constantly being raised, forcing the entire sector to reach excellence. This translates into the development and improvement of ever more secure systems and the continuous training of operators on the basis of best practices exchanged at international level.

Our expertise in Nuclear


Ranked in the international Top 2 nuclear engineering companies, Assystem Group is one of the world’s leading nuclear engineering and consulting companies. With more than 50 years’ expertise in complex and highly regulated industries, Assystem’s commitment to the nuclear sector remains as strong as ever.

Our independence from technology means the 3,000 nuclear Assystem’s experts can work with all nuclear technology provider in every country in the world. Owing to this, Assystem has a local presence in many countries developing nuclear energy, including France, India, United Kingdom, Finland, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and South Africa.

UzAssystem is studying nuclear power in Uzbekistan to provide a stable supply of low-carbon energy that will fuel the country growth for decades to come. Those nuclear projects will benefit from Assystem Group international expertise and UzAssystem local engineering experience to build these new power plants.
