About us
Dounreay is responsible for the safe and secure clean-up of the Dounreay nuclear site.
Dounreay, a division of Magnox Limited, is the site licence company responsible for the clean-up and demolition of Britain’s former centre of fast reactor research and development.
Dounreay is a subsidiary of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA). It is funded by the NDA to deliver the site closure programme.
The experimental nature of many of its redundant facilities means the clean-up and demolition requires innovation as well as great care. The intention is to decommission Dounreay and leave it in a safe condition for future generations.
The skills and enterprise it fosters are giving Scottish companies a platform to compete in the global decommissioning market.
