Our Take:
This restructuring signals Westinghouse's strategic focus on optimizing the longevity and performance of existing nuclear assets in response to a growing market demand. With Luca Oriani and Marie Blanc bringing extensive experience and a proven track record, Westinghouse is well-positioned to enhance customer value globally.
