Story summary
  • Axpo confirmed that, as of spring 2026, its reactors no longer use Russian uranium.
  • Greenpeace warned that Switzerland’s nuclear power stays tied to Russian uranium because most Kazakh uranium transits a Russian hub in St Petersburg, making the supply chain vulnerable and threatening energy independence and safety.
  • In February 2025 Axpo signed fuel contracts with Canadian and Kazakh producers, routing processing through France, Germany, the Netherlands, Britain and the United States.
