A fully immersive insight into the world of nuclear energy!

Step behind the scenes at Cattenom power station, which can generate up to 30 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity each year – equivalent to nearly 70% of the Grand Est region’s electricity needs!

Your three-hour guided tour will begin with an informative talk explaining how a nuclear power station operates. Then, equipped with a hard hat and safety footwear, you will enter one of the four turbine halls, home to the turbo-generator units that drive electricity production.
