Overview
Studsvik Scandpower GmbH is the German-based entity of the Studsvik group, a Swedish nuclear technology and services company. It is registered in Norderstedt, Germany, and forms part of Studsvik's global network of locations, which also includes sites in Sweden, the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Japan and China. The Studsvik group traces its origins to AB Atomenergi, formed in 1947 to develop, design, construct and operate nuclear power installations in Sweden, and today describes itself as a global provider of advanced technical services across the nuclear and radioactive material lifecycle. Within the group, Studsvik Scandpower GmbH is associated with nuclear simulation software and fuel/reactor management technology. Studsvik's Nuclear Simulation Software offering is designed to improve the efficiency of the entire fuel cycle, and the group's broader Fuel and Materials Technology portfolio includes fuel qualification, plant life management, hot cell technology and international programs. These capabilities are used by nuclear utilities and fuel vendors to model reactor behaviour, optimise fuel use and support safe, efficient operation of nuclear facilities. Studsvik serves customers worldwide with more than 500 employees and over 75 years of experience in nuclear technology and services in a radiological environment. Its key offerings span decommissioning and radiation protection services, fuel and materials technology, isotopes for medical and industrial applications, nuclear simulation software, waste management technology, and specialised industrial solutions such as EBS drilling and sawing and BlackStarTech resilient power and lighting systems. The German operation in Norderstedt contributes to this portfolio, particularly in the software and engineering domain. Studsvik AB is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, and Studsvik Scandpower GmbH operates as a subsidiary within that listed group. The company's stated vision is "Innovating Nuclear Sustainability," and it positions itself as a preferred partner that collaborates closely with customers to develop specialised technical solutions that improve efficiency, extend lifetimes and reduce risk and cost. Its markets are global, with a strong presence in Europe, North America and Asia.
History
The Studsvik group's history begins in 1947, when AB Atomenergi was formed in Sweden to develop, design, construct and operate nuclear power installations. The company was established under Swedish state supervision and grew around the Studsvik site, located about 100 km south of Stockholm on the Baltic coast. Over the following decades, Studsvik evolved from a national nuclear research and development organisation into a commercial provider of nuclear technology and services. As the nuclear industry matured, Studsvik expanded its activities across the nuclear fuel cycle, building expertise in fuel and materials testing, reactor physics, software for fuel and reactor management, decommissioning, radiation protection and radioactive waste management. The group also developed specialised industrial solutions, including drilling and sawing equipment for extreme and sensitive environments and resilient power and lighting systems. International expansion followed. Studsvik established operations and subsidiaries in several countries, and today it reports a presence in Sweden, Germany, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, the United States, Japan and China. The German entity, Studsvik Scandpower GmbH, is based in Norderstedt, near Hamburg, and is part of this international network. It is associated with Studsvik's nuclear simulation software and fuel/reactor management activities, which serve utilities and fuel vendors worldwide. Studsvik AB is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, giving the group access to public capital markets. The company describes itself as having more than 75 years of experience in nuclear technology and services in a radiological environment, with more than 500 employees worldwide. Its stated vision, "Innovating Nuclear Sustainability," reflects a focus on supporting clean energy, healthcare and industrial applications of nuclear technology. In 2026, the group announced leadership and partnership developments, including the appointment of Art Wharton as Chief Nuclear Officer and a commitment with GE Vernova Hitachi and Samsung C&T to advance nuclear-related initiatives.
