The long-term agreement between the Canadian uranium company and Slovenské elektrárne consists of uranium and conversion services to support operations at its nuclear plants until 2036. "Cameco is proud to play an essential role helping Slovakia meet its nuclear fuel needs. This is one of the most critical parts of the nuclear fuel cycle, Slovenské elektrárne Chairman and CEO Branislav Strýček said. "Slovenské elektrárne has succeeded in securing a long-term and reliable supply of a significant share of this key raw material until 2036, which is a significant step for Slovakia's energy security. Details of the contract are commercially confidential, although Cameco said the material will "support operations" at the two Slovakian plants - Bohunice and Mochovce - starting in 2028.
