Ansaldo energia incorpora Nucleare come business unit

Ansaldo Energia has announced the incorporation of Nucleare as a dedicated business unit, with the creation of an ad hoc Nuclear unit. This strategic move aims to strengthen the group's nuclear role in its growth strategy and accelerate its development, leveraging Ansaldo Energia's industrial scale and investment capacity. Group CEO Fabrizio Fabbri explained that the merger is necessary due to planned investments of hundreds of millions in nuclear energy, which would have been impossible within the current company.

The new business unit will combine specialized skills, industrial capabilities, and financial strength of Ansaldo Energia. Its goal is to accelerate the development of the group's nuclear activities, contributing to the growth of the Italian industry and enhancing the country's energy security and competitiveness. Fabbri stressed that nuclear energy is returning to the center of long-term energy strategies in Europe.

The integration will result in the formation of a Nuclear business unit, led by Daniela Gentile, who will serve as executive vice president of nuclear affairs. Gentile will oversee the business unit and strategic development initiatives in the sector. Ansaldo Energia, known for its expertise in steam turbines, generators for nuclear power plants, and long-term engineering, production, supply chain management, and services, will leverage its established capabilities in the nuclear sector.

The new organization aims to build on Ansaldo Energia's 60 years of nuclear experience while complementing its industrial strengths. In a rapidly growing market, the company plans to offer clients more comprehensive support for the development and execution of next-generation nuclear programs, including small modular reactors (SMRs), advanced fourth-generation reactors, and major international fusion energy projects.
