Cyclife France Accelerates Its Energy-Efficiency Renovation Efforts with Perfesco

Cyclife France : a key player in nuclear waste management

Fa subsidiary of the EDF Group and a European leader in the management of low- and very low-level radioactive waste, Cyclife France operates an industrial facility designed to reduce the volume of waste through incineration or smelting. Furthermore,, it operates a fleet of mobile machines that processes waste directly at nuclear sites. 

Employed since 2019 in aenergy efficiency, the company is seeking in particular to reduce theenergy energy at its Centraco, while remaining true to the EDF Group’s mission: “Building a CO₂-neutral energy future.”

An energy-efficiency renovation project at the Centraco 

As part of an effort to reduce its electricity, Cyclife France enlisted Perfesco to renovate the lighting at the Centraco site. The team carried out this project across four strategic areas, all of which operate continuously (24 hours a day, 7 days a week), where lighting plays an essential role in the site’s smooth operation.

As part of this ambitious project, Perfesco’s teams replaced more than 3,000 light fixtures with more efficient, energy-saving models. As a result, electricity consumption electricity consumption was reduced by 60%, enabling the Centraco site to save more than 1,600 MWh per year.
