From the publication:

>FOREWORD

Security of energy supply and energy cost stability in the long term, plus the efforts 
to combat the greenhouse effect and potential global warming, argue in favor of a 
greater diversity in sources of energy supplies. Against this background nuclear 
power, which is more and more economically competitive, safe, reliable and 
environment friendly, has a vital role to play.

A world expert in energy, AREVA creates and offers solutions to generate, transmit 
and distribute electricity; its businesses cover on a long-term basis every sector in 
the use of nuclear power to support electricity needs: front end (Uranium ore mining 
and conversion, Uranium enrichment, fuel fabrication), reactor design and 
construction, reactor services, back end of the fuel cycle, transmission and 
distribution from the generator to the large end-users.

The EPR is a large advanced evolutionary reactor of the Pressurized Water Reactor 
(PWR) type offered by AREVA to satisfy electricity companies' needs for a new 
generation of nuclear power plants even more competitive and safer while 
contributing to sustainable development.
