DRS have provided a rail solution for the transportation of spent fuel on behalf of EDF Energy since 1998.
It currently provides several rail services per week to six EDF Energy Power stations in the UK, manages railheads and strategic stabling locations to support the logistical operations, and provides all of the required security and regulatory interfaces.
Nuclear safety is the overriding priority for EDF Energy and DRS have successfully provided these services without a single safety incident resulting in the release of radioactive material.
DRS has worked with EDF Energy to develop new opportunities and bespoke solutions outside of their normal business to meet their needs, and are helping them develop a programme to support their defueling commitments in relation to their Advanced Gas Reactor (AGR) Stations.
