Sellafield Ltd
Sellafield Ltd is the company responsible for safely delivering decommissioning, reprocessing, nuclear waste management and fuel manufacturing activities on behalf of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority.
The company has sites at Sellafield in Cumbria and Capenhurst in Cheshire as well as an extensive engineering design capability based at Risley in Warrington.
Now under the ownership of Nuclear Management partners, Sellafield Ltd has the largest concentration of nuclear expertise in Europe, with over 50 years of experience.
Our proud heritage also includes the development of the world's first commercial nuclear power station, Calder Hall.
Our company
Across our business we are carrying out some of the most innovative and complex nuclear activities in the world.
Our site at Sellafield is spread across 6 square kilometres and is home to more than 1,000 facilities, all performing a wide range of tasks. These include decommissioning the UK’s nuclear legacy as well fuel recycling, manufacturing and the management of low, high and intermediate level nuclear waste.
At Capenhurst, we are due to become the UK’s first nuclear site to complete its decommissioning and clean-up programme - and on the way has delivered the biggest demolition projects ever undertaken in the UK nuclear industry. Our management of the final stages of decommissioning offers other sites an insight into the challenges they will face and provides a blueprint for success.
To help fund nuclear clean-up, revenue from our commercial fuel recycling and manufacturing operations is managed by International Nuclear Services. INS is the customer interface for spent fuel reprocessing and mixed oxide (Mox) fuel supply contracts with over 20 utility customers. They are also responsible for the transport of nuclear fuel products to both UK and overseas customers.
Our people
Our people are our biggest asset. Between them, our Sellafield Capenhurst and Risley sites are operated by around 10,000 of the most experienced and highly regarded nuclear workers in the world. The workforce ranges from apprentices, graduates and doctorates, through to those who began work in the 1960s. Their expertise covers all of Sellafield Ltd’s needs, from standard business functions, to highly specialised decommissioning and engineering activities.
