Our activities
A subsidiary of EDF and Framatome, Edvance is responsible for engineering activities related to new-build nuclear islands and instrumentation and control systems. The company is involved in both design activities (basic design) and project delivery activities (engineering studies and procurement support).
Following the commissioning of Flamanville 3, Edvance is currently contributing to the delivery of the Hinkley Point C and Sizewell C EPR projects, the detailed design of the EPR2 reactor model and the development of NUWARD SMR design.
Our organisation
Created on 1 January 2017, Edvance is owned 80% by EDF and 20% by Framatome. The company embodies the partnership between two major players in the nuclear sector, working together to support a more efficient and competitive industry in France and internationally.
While benefiting from the strength and stability of its two shareholders, Edvance retains the agility and responsiveness of a human-sized company. With offices in France (Paris region, Lyon and Flamanville), the United Kingdom (Bristol) and Germany (Erlangen), it operates in a distinctly international and multicultural environment.
To design the next generation of nuclear reactors, Edvance relies on a project-based organisation, closely aligned with its customers' needs and strategic programmes. Project teams are supported by the Engineering & Supply Chain Directorate, which brings together multidisciplinary expertise focused on performance, safety and innovation.
