Park Nuclear Named Nuclear Power Plant Parts Supplier of the Year 2026
The next chapter of nuclear is upon us. The need for quality suppliers with institutional knowledge, depth of supply, and the capability to meet future demands has never been greater.
Park Nuclear is honored to be named Nuclear Power Plant Parts Supplier of the Year 2026 by Energy Business Review. This recognition is not just about Park. It reflects the relationships, knowledge, and systems built between our team and our customers over decades of supporting the nuclear industry.
Supporting Long-Term Nuclear Reliability
Known for our support of obsolete and legacy equipment, Park continues to meet those challenges head-on.
“Obsolescence is no longer an exception. It is a defining feature of the nuclear supply chain.”
Reliability of the U.S. nuclear fleet doesn’t hinge on simply finding components manufactured decades ago. Finding the part is only the beginning. Plants require quality, traceability, documentation, and proven performance.
This recognition reflects Park’s commitment to providing those capabilities—and continuing to build what our customers will need next.
From Outage Support to Lifecycle Planning
Nuclear’s next chapter looks in both directions. We’re maintaining equipment well beyond its original design horizon while preparing for SMRs and advanced nuclear generation. The demands placed on procurement, engineering, and the nuclear supply chain are changing with it.
“The role has evolved from ‘call us when it breaks’ to ‘partner with us so it never does.’”
— Michael Christianson, President
As Energy Business Review states, “For Park Nuclear, the work increasingly centers on helping utilities preserve engineering continuity across infrastructure expected to operate decades beyond original assumptions.”
That evolution means looking beyond the immediate need. Through long-term obsolescence planning, engineering and qualification support, inventory, repair capabilities, and decades of accumulated equipment knowledge, Park helps customers prepare for challenges before they become critical.
Built for the Long Term
“As experienced professionals retire, decades of institutional knowledge risk disappearing with them.”
Preserving that knowledge is becoming as important as preserving the equipment itself.
Park is uniquely positioned to help the industry through this transition. The experience of our people, decades of original technical documentation and equipment history, and the systems we’ve built to preserve and make that knowledge accessible provide continuity between what the industry has learned and what it will need next.
The technology may change. The standard does not.
As nuclear enters its next chapter, Park will continue doing what we have done for decades: understanding the application, preserving the knowledge behind it, and delivering solutions our customers can rely on.
