UKAEA’s 15th Supplier Event

Earlier this month, our Business Development Manager, Paul Adlem attended the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) 15th Suppliers’ Event.

As CAN is committed to supporting the fusion development sector, this event provided invaluable insights into the evolving commercial landscape and upcoming opportunities in both fusion development and Cullum decommissioning projects.

There were multiple conversations and key areas of interest, including:
➡️ The JET Decommissioning & Repurposing Programme
➡️ Understanding the “outside-in” approach and upcoming auxiliary building clearance work
➡️ STEP Programme progression
➡️ Design and commercial activities at the West Burton site
➡️ LIBRTI tritium breeding programme.
➡️ Facility design and procurement opportunities worth £26M+ across multiple workstreams

The breadth of procurement opportunities, from building works and tritium handling equipment to facility services and operational readiness, aligns perfectly with our expertise in supporting complex nuclear projects.

We’re excited to contribute our capabilities to advancing both fusion energy development and safe decommissioning operations.
