Partnerships

The availability of high-level skills for EDF draws both on strong and deep-rooted bases, on disciplines that have been one of the power company's strengths for a long time, and on well-structured alliances, above all in new fields such as energy markets or new technologies. Our policy of partnerships is part of a co-development strategy, both with industrial partners and with research bodies. It is both about strengthening our ties with our main French and international partners and opening out to new research networks and collaborative research systems. Laboratories shared with other academic or industrial organizations help share the creation of new high-level skills and raise their standards, thanks to the cross-fertilisation of cultures and the sharing of problems and experience.
