Get ready for a bold move towards a nuclear future! Orano and Siteflow are taking their partnership to new heights, revolutionizing the nuclear industry's digital transformation.
At the prestigious World Nuclear Exhibition, Orano announced a significant step forward in its collaboration with Siteflow, a French SaaS platform developer. This multi-year partnership is all about harnessing the power of field data and artificial intelligence to enhance the performance and safety of nuclear operations.
But here's where it gets controversial... By integrating AI into their services, Orano and Siteflow aim to create a digital model that meets the growing demands of production, nuclear safety, and environmental responsibility. This approach is not just about modernization; it's about ensuring the industry's long-term sustainability and safety.
Since their collaboration began in 2020, Orano's teams have deployed over 150,000 "flows" of operational data, contributing significantly to the digital transformation of the nuclear fleet. And this is the part most people miss: it's not just about technology; it's about leveraging data to manage activities better and unlock the potential of artificial intelligence.
Jean-Christophe Patout, Senior Executive Vice President at Orano, emphasizes the importance of setting high standards as industry leaders. "With Siteflow, we're harnessing the best digital technologies to capitalize on our field data and manage our activities more efficiently." Louis Hauvette, founder and CEO of Siteflow, adds, "We're proud to strengthen our collaboration with Orano, a pioneer in nuclear digitalization. Together, we're proving that a digital approach can bring about lasting change in field operations."
This partnership solidifies Orano's position as an industry leader on French nuclear sites. With a presence at all French NPPs and over 2,000 employees dedicated to nuclear power plant operations, Orano plays a crucial role in nuclear production logistics and fleet maintenance.
In 2025, Orano continued its momentum, securing two major contracts worth over 50 million euros over three years. These projects, located at the Chooz and Penly sites, involve logistics and tooling management services, integrating successful digitalization solutions from other customer sites.
Orano's commitment to nuclear 4.0 is evident, and its impact on the industry is significant. As an international operator in nuclear materials, Orano is dedicated to addressing global energy and health challenges with cutting-edge technologies and high-value products and services. With a workforce of 18,000, Orano is committed to innovation and the development of nuclear material transformation and control, ensuring a healthy and resource-efficient world.
