AREVA opens North American Center of Excellence
As of December 1st, 2007, Protection, Substation Automation and associated service activities, currently conducted out of AREVA‘s Bethlehem, Pennsylvania facility in the U.S., are transferred to its La Prairie site.

The creation of this center of excellence in our existing site in La Prairie, Montreal is just another example of AREVA’s dedication to its North American customers.”
