“I would like to thank Schneider Electric for their leadership in Canada’s world-class nuclear sector and their support for CANDU technology,” said Joe St. Julian, President, Nuclear, AtkinsRéalis. “This growing movement positions Canada as a global clean energy champion, while promoting a domestic nuclear industry that Canadians can be proud of.”
“We are honoured to join the Canadians for CANDU campaign and drive meaningful change to reach Canada’s net-zero goals,” says Emily Heitman, Country President for Schneider Electric Canada. “Our shared commitment to sustainability and a vision for a cleaner, greener future makes this partnership a natural fit. We’re excited about the lasting economic and environmental benefits this partnership will bring to Canada and beyond, paving the way for others to follow.”
