The winners for each of the 19 categories exemplify the spirit of innovation and an enduring commitment to employees, customers, shareholders, the environment and the energy industry as a whole.

“It is an honor that this project was recognized as a premier project for the industry, and we are proud to receive this award for the Engineering Project of the Year,” said Mike Rencheck, Chief Operating Officer, AREVA Inc. “We want to thank the teams that were instrumental in completing this project and moving the industry into the next generation of technology for safer plants.”
