About Enusa
Enusa Industrias Avanzadas, S.A. is a
publicly traded company that is 60 percent owned by
Sociedad Estatal de Participaciones Industriales (SEPI),
which reports to the Ministry of Economy and Treasury,
and 40 percent by the Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas,
Medioambientales y Tecnológicas (CIEMAT),
which in turn belongs to the Ministry
of Science and Innovation.
Enusa is structured around three business
areas:
• Front-End
of the Nuclear Fuel Cycle: This is the traditional
core business of the company. It basically consists
of the supply of enriched
uranium to the Spanish nuclear power plants, acting
as a purchasing pool for the country’s electric
utilities. It also includes the design and manufacturing
of nuclear fuel in its Juzbado
factory (Salamanca) for national and foreign nuclear
power plants. Enusa also provides engineering
services in everything related to the management
and optimization of fuel use in the reactor, and fuel
services in the areas of fresh and irradiated fuel
handling, inspection and repair, acting as support for
the nuclear power plants.
In addition, the company has minority
financial stakes related to its core business: in the
European uranium enrichment consortium EURODIF,
which operates a uranium enrichment factory located
in Tricastrin (France), and in COMINAK
the owner of a mine and a uranium concentrate plant
located in the Republic of Niger.
• Environment:
Thanks to its long experience in the exploitation of
mining operations, Enusa has acquired an extensive environmental
know-how. By taking advantage of this know-how and experience,
it has developed a business area focused on environmental
management projects and divided into two fields of work:
the reclamation of former uranium mining installations,
and the Technical Environmental Office. Enusa’s
environmental business is extended by the subsidiaries
TECONMA
(environmental protection and environmental impact mitigation
services based on technologies applied to environmental
conservation in civil works) and EMGRISA
(industrial waste management, and contaminated
water and soil treatment and characterization).
• Industrial Investments:
Enusa’s experience in the nuclear field and its
great technological potential have led it to develop
a diversification policy. As result, it has acquired
a financial stake in industrial enterprises such as
ETSA
and Enusegur (hazardous or high liability material
transportation) and Molypharma
(radiopharmacy and production of PET radiopharmaceuticals).
These three affiliates, together with
the parent company Enusa Industrias Avanzadas and the
environmental subsidiaries, form the Enusa Group. |
