The president of NUCLEP emphasized that the company would be one of the main sponsors of the event. NUCLEP is subordinate to the Ministry of Mines and Energy, created to support the Brazilian Nuclear Program.

Always involved in the development of our nuclear projects directed towards the Defense of the country, the minister is also our president of the Administrative Council. NUCLEP has a lot to contribute to the growth of the national Energy sector and we will always be present at events like this, which enhance and strengthen our ministry.”
