A deal has been struck between ENGIE and EDF Energy to extend their existing long-term partnership.

This £350 million deal will see ENGIE continue to provide a range of facilities management and specialist technical support services to EDF's nuclear power stations in the UK until the end of 2027. The extension will also involve substantial investment in technology by ENGIE, as well as re-designed workflows to drive further cost efficiencies across the portfolio.

The new contract covers the period 2022 – 2027.

Having delivered services to EDF Energy since 2008, ENGIE now has more than 1,100 employees covering over 150 service lines at eight nuclear power stations across the UK and at two coal and one gas power stations in Nottinghamshire. Services include facilities management and additional support through project delivery and specialist technical maintenance. In addition, ENGIE also store, maintain and deploy all the emergency response plant and equipment for the nuclear fleet.

This latest contract extension is testament to our capacity to deliver specialist services which add value to EDF Energy's activities and their faith in our ability to provide a customer solution that fully supports their operations."

Paul Garrad, Head of Supply Chain for EDF Energy Generation said: "This significant extension to the facilities management partnership has been secured by ENGIE through their demonstration of ability to deliver value. This has been achieved through a fantastic workforce delivering a range of fleet wide services, all in support of safe, reliable generation."
