Magnox, responsible for the operation of ten of the UK’s first generation of nuclear power stations, subcontract over 60% of their annual budget into the supply chain, equivalent to over £400m - of which 20% finds its way to SMEs (Small and Medium Enterprises).
As part of its updated business plan, the NDA currently has an annual expenditure of almost £3 billion a year. £1.3 billion of this enters the supply chain at various levels below the SLCs, delivering massive opportunities for decommissioning service providers.
The nuclear decommissioning market is set to boom in the coming decade, thereby creating huge business opportunities across Europe.
