Fusion energy: leveraging our nuclear expertise for ITER

Tractebel supports ITER Organization and Fusion for Energy in the installation's design, construction and commissioning. Our engineers also oversee the qualification of nuclear equipment.

"Our scope is broad," says Ronan Moullec, Project Director at Tractebel. We offer civil engineering, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), and electrical systems services, both on-site and remotely. Our expertise for ITER also covers nuclear safety, system engineering, liquid and gas systems, and Instrumentation and control."

Listen to our colleagues and clients, Laurent Patisson and Yves Belpomo, from the ITER Organization and Jean-Baptiste Girardo and Florent Papineschi from Fusion for Energy who explain what added value Tractebel brings to the project. They stress Tractebel's ability to provide high-level expertise in the various nuclear engineering fields to address complex issues.

"Tractebel can provide on-demand specific skills, in particular when there is an ITER demand on confinement, qualification or seismic analysis, things where Tractebel's expertise is extremely valuable and necessary for ITER," says Laurent Patisson, Civil engineering and Interface Project Leader, ITER Organization.

"Tractebel's key strength is its experience in the operational support for several nuclear plants in Belgium, which covers various fields of expertise, especially civil works, seismic analysis or qualification of mechanical, electrical and INC components," says Jean-Baptiste Girardo,Technical Project Officer, Fusion for Energy

The ITER project paves the way for developing a long-term, low-carbon energy source. Tractebel is honoured to support its clients in their mission to complete the project and make the impossible possible.
