France authorized EDF to begin site preparation for two EPR2 reactors at Gravelines, marking early progress in its nuclear expansion. Meanwhile, the Netherlands awarded design study contracts for two new plants, and Egypt completed a construction milestone at its first nuclear power plant, El Dabaa.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Clean Energy.

◆ The Wire takeaway

France's choice to expand at Gravelines opens site-related advantages you can exploit in supply or services this year. The Netherlands' dual vendor approach signals a rare opportunity to position early ahead of final tech and site selection.
