AREVA launches a new advertising campaign: "Energy: one powerful story"
Press release

January 04, 2011
From January 5, AREVA is set to reposition its advertising, returning to the screens with a new campaign entitled "Energy: one powerful story".
For the AREVA brand, that will celebrate its tenth birthday in September 2011, this communications approach is part of the group’s continuous improvement commitment.
The campaign is underpinned by a 60-second animated film, which tells the story of energy as a vector for human progress, stretching back to antiquity. The visual and musical originality that made the previous "Energy experts" spot such a success, is very much in evidence.
"This new film brings out the intrinsic value of the group's offering of low carbon solutions for producing electricity. But it goes beyond that, by contextualizing those solutions in terms of humanity and development, underlining what has been achieved up to the present and what remains to be done. In this sense the message carried by the film is one of enthusiasm and humility", explains Jacques-Emmanuel Saulnier, VP Communications and spokesperson for the AREVA group.
The film itself will be accompanied by a press and internet campaign that will project AREVA's continuous improvement ethos and approach through several examples of concrete achievements.
A special section on areva.com will support the campaign.
