Fuel CANDU Energy
CANDU Energy produces nuclear fuel used in CANDU reactors, which are Canadian-designed nuclear power plants. The fuel typically consists of uranium, processed into small, cylindrical pellets packed into metal rods. These fuel bundles generate heat through nuclear fission, which is then used to produce electricity. CANDU fuel is known for efficiency and safety, utilizing natural uranium or slightly enriched uranium, and can be reprocessed or recycled. The company's role is to design, manufacture, and supply this specialized nuclear fuel, ensuring reliable and safe energy production for power plants around the world.
