AFRY enters a new framework agreement with the Norwegian Nuclear Decommissioning Agency (NND)

NND, the Norwegian government agency responsible for the safe and efficient decommissioning of nuclear facilities at Halden and Kjeller, is also mandated to manage the long-term, responsible management of radioactive waste.

Under the framework agreement, AFRY will develop and refine NND’s safety-related management systems, delivering tailored training programmes to strengthen internal competence in safety assessments and safety cases, and leading the implementation of advanced methodologies that integrate safety and security protocols. The support will cover methodologies for both newly designed and legacy nuclear facilities, as well as facilities for the storage and management of spent fuel and radioactive waste.

AFRY’s role also includes strategic advisory services, internal control, and third-party reviews—ensuring that best practices and regulatory compliance remain at the core of the decommissioning process.

“Decommissioning nuclear facilities demands not only technical expertise, but full compliance with strict security regulations and confidentiality protocols. We are proud to support NND in building a solid safety culture that mitigates risks and meets the highest international and national standards,” says Ingeborg Grötterud, Head of Nuclear Sweden and Energy Nordics at AFRY.

The framework agreement is set for three years, with the potential to extend up to seven years. A total of three companies have secured agreements with NND, with an estimated combined value of up to 230 MSEK. The order value for AFRY is not specified.
