AtkinsRéalis, a fully integrated professional services and project management company with offices around the world, welcomes Schneider Electric as a new ambassador in support of the Canadians for CANDU campaign.
The Canadians for CANDU campaign was launched on February 28, 2024. Spearheaded by Co-Chairs the Right Honourable Jean Chrétien and former Ontario Premier Mike Harris, the campaign promotes the deployment of CANDU® nuclear technology at home and abroad in support of Canadian and global efforts to reach net-zero emissions.
“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."
