GENUSA Awarded Vattenfall Contract to Supply Forsmark Reload Assemblies

GENUSA was awarded a multi-reload fuel contract by Vattenfall on Feb 23, 2026 to supply reload assemblies for the Forsmark nuclear power station in Sweden, a move that secures planned fuel deliveries for upcoming refueling campaigns at the site. The agreement names GENUSA as the supplier of reload assemblies intended to support Vattenfall’s ongoing operations at Forsmark.

GENUSA is the joint venture owned by US-based Global Nuclear Fuel (GNF), part of GE Vernova, and Spain’s ENUSA. The structure of the ownership places manufacturing and supply experience from GNF alongside ENUSA’s fuel design and fabrication capabilities, positioning the JV to manage multi-cycle reload obligations under the Vattenfall contract.

Vattenfall’s award covers delivery of reload assemblies across multiple refueling cycles at Forsmark, tying GENUSA’s schedule to the plant’s planned outages and fuel management timetable. Forsmark, operated by Vattenfall in Sweden, relies on reload assemblies for each refueling outage; this contract formalizes a supplier relationship intended to meet those scheduled reload needs over more than one cycle.

The deal on Feb 23, 2026 strengthens commercial links between GE Vernova’s Global Nuclear Fuel, ENUSA and Vattenfall’s Swedish fleet at a time when utilities are prioritizing predictable fuel supply chains. Implementation will focus on coordinating delivery schedules with Vattenfall’s refueling outages at Forsmark and executing manufacturing and logistics plans across the GENUSA partners. The award signals a concrete procurement decision for reload fuel supply in Sweden and sets the stage for near-term planning between GENUSA and Vattenfall on shipments and outage integration.
