The nuclear energy sector plays a crucial role in the UK’s transition to a low-carbon economy. This is especially so as the government is seeking to invest in and expand nuclear infrastructure to stabilise energy supply and drive economic growth.
As a nuclear energy provider, you face unique challenges in delivering reliable, low-carbon power while upholding the highest standards of safety, environmental protection, and regulatory compliance. As a key player in this evolving landscape, Lucion offers a comprehensive suite of services tailored to the unique challenges of nuclear facilities. From rigorous safety assessments to innovative environmental solutions, we partner with nuclear energy providers to ensure operational excellence, regulatory compliance, and sustainable practices.
We understand these complex demands and offer tailored solutions to support your operational excellence, ensure compliance, and drive sustainability.
Radiation Protection and Safety: Safeguarding Your Operations
Your workforce and surrounding communities’ safety is paramount. Our team of qualified Radiation Protection Advisers (RPAs) and Radioactive Waste Advisers (RWAs) provides expert guidance on all aspects of radiation safety.

Our UKAS accredited services cover compliance with the Ionising Radiations Regulations (IRR) 2017 and other relevant legislation, giving you peace of mind and allowing you to focus on your core operations.
Environmental Management: Protecting Your Assets and Community
Beyond radiation, your facility faces a range of environmental challenges. Our multidisciplinary team offers comprehensive services to address these issues:
- Asbestos surveys and management plans to mitigate historical risks in older facilities
- Legionella risk assessments and water hygiene management to protect your workforce’s health
- Contaminated land assessments and geotechnical services to support new developments or decommissioning projects

By addressing these areas, we help you maintain compliance, protect your assets, and foster positive relationships with local communities.
Sustainability and ESG Performance: Securing Your Future
As nuclear energy plays an increasingly vital role in the UK’s net-zero ambitions, demonstrating strong environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance is crucial for your success. Our tailored ESG assessments provide a clear picture of your current performance and identify areas for improvement. We work with you to develop comprehensive sustainability strategies aligned with national and global goals, helping you:
- Optimise operations and reduce environmental impact through carbon footprinting and energy efficiency audits
