What happened
Mark Carney stated that AtkinsRéalis has a strong chance of winning a lucrative tender to supply nuclear energy to Turkey. Cameco CEO Tim Gitzel told a House of Commons committee that the Government of Canada should remain "technology neutral" to meet global demand. Gitzel also argued that the federal government should not interfere in competition between Canadian nuclear companies.
Why it matters
Canada's nuclear strategy aims to double uranium exports and build up to 10 new nuclear reactors over the next 15 years. This strategy outlines a plan to boost foreign sales of Candu reactors, which are manufactured by AtkinsRéalis. The competition between AtkinsRéalis and Cameco is intensifying in markets like Poland and Turkey.
