About the project
Springfields Fuels Limited (SFL), part of the Westinghouse Electric Company, is a historic nuclear licenced site, processing nuclear material since the mid-1940s located near Preston in Lancashire, England. The site’s nuclear activity has primarily been the manufacture of nuclear fuel and intermediate products, including Uranium Hexafluoride. The SFL site in Preston is ear-marked to build the next generation of high-tech nuclear fuel facilities as part of the UK’s energy strategy to help fuel nuclear power plants at home and abroad. These new processes will transform the site from it’s current operations to manufacture fuel for today’s operating nuclear power plants. Morgan Sindall are engaged in the Early Contractor Involvement stage of the project to help define the project and support Westinghouse to gain necessary approvals for the construction stage to commence.
