JNFL's Mission

"Our mission is to establish a nuclear fuel cycle and produce new energy for the future."

Establishing nuclear fuel cycle will lead to producing a new energy that does not emit CO2. Since Japan depends heavily on imports for energy resources, its energy supply structure is highly vulnerable. In order to accomplish sustainable society and maintain prosperous standard of living in the future, Japan has to secure the energy security.

We are a unique company that operates the core of nuclear fuel cycle and possess advanced technologies such as, uranium enrichment, reprocessing and MOX fuel fabrication that extract plutonium and fabricate MOX fuel, and manage and disposal of radioactive wastes. We will contribute to the world in the field of nuclear energy by managing our businesses and achieving nuclear nonproliferation, and demonstrating the peaceful use of nuclear energy.
