World Nuclear Association

Our mission is to promote a wider understanding of nuclear energy among key international influencers by producing authoritative information, developing common industry positions, and contributing to the energy debate.

World Nuclear Association is the international organisation that represents the global nuclear industry.

Membership of World Nuclear Association encompasses:

• Virtually all of the world’s uranium mining, conversion, enrichment and fuel fabrication companies.
• All major reactor vendors.
• Nuclear utilities providing 70% of world nuclear generation.
• Major nuclear engineering, construction, and waste management companies; and research and development organisations.
• Companies providing international services in nuclear transport, law, insurance, brokerage, industry analysis and finance.

World Nuclear Association is the only industry organisation with a global mandate to communicate about nuclear energy. It is in a unique position to share and advance best practice and common messages globally, working alongside partner organisations: the IAEA, the inter-governmental body for technical and scientific cooperation in nuclear energy; WANO, the industry’s reactor safety organisation; and other regional and national nuclear associations around the world.

With a goal to increase global support for nuclear energy among key stakeholders, our role is to represent the nuclear industry’s interests where the energy debate is taking place. By coordinating on key messages with our partners, we deliver targeted information to decision-makers and influencers, including the media and international organisations that have an interest in energy-related issues.
