AREVA is a world-leading company in nuclear energy. It is the only company with a presence in each industrial activity linked to nuclear energy: mining, chemistry, enrichment, combustibles, services, engineering, nuclear propulsion and reactors, treatment, recycling, stabilization, and dismantling. AREVA also claims to offer technological solutions for CO₂-free energy; and produces earth leakage circuit breaker technologies.

Four main subsidiaries form the core of AREVA:
- AREVA NP (formerly Framatome ANP) — Nuclear Power: develops and builds nuclear reactors; Siemens has a 34% stake in AREVA NP
- AREVA NC (formerly Cogema) — Nuclear Cycle: covers the whole nuclear fuel cycle, from mining to waste disposal. Owns Eurodif
- AREVA TA (formerly Technicatome) : develops and builds research reactors and reactors for the naval propulsion
- AREVA T&D — Transmission and Distribution: power transmission and distribution. It was bought from Alstom on 9 January 2004. Currently, AREVA has entered into exclusive negotiations with ALSTOM and Schneider Electric for selling of T&D Division
The major partners of AREVA include: Euriware, STMicroelectronics, Eramet, and SAFRAN.
AREVA is part of the Global Nuclear Energy Partnership (GNEP) alliance, along with the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), Washington Group International and BWX. GNEP is a plan initiated in 2006 to form an international partnership to reprocess spent nuclear fuel in a way that renders the plutonium in it usable for nuclear fuel but not for nuclear weapons.
