Swissnuclear

About us

Swissnuclear is the association of Swiss nuclear power plant operators and represents their common interests.

The Nuclear Energy Subcommittee, the predecessor organization of swissnuclear, was founded in 1985. Until 2017, the current association was a specialist group of swisselectric, the former association of Swiss electricity network companies. Since then, swissnuclear has been an independent organization, supported by Axpo Holding AG, Kernkraftwerk Gösgen-Däniken AG, Kernkraftwerk Leibstadt AG and BKW Energie AG.

The swissnuclear office has been located in Olten since 2003. It has around a dozen employees from the fields of technology, research, communication, public affairs and administration.
