AREVA chief executive officer Luc Oursel said these agreements illustrate the relationship between the company and the Chinese nuclear industry in which CNNC is a major player.
"They also strengthen our mining partnership with this strategic partner, in particular in the field of uranium supply, and are in line with the links we have already forged in other areas of the nuclear cycle", he added.
AREVA and the Chinese nuclear industry have partnered to work together on the supply of natural uranium, the delivery of nuclear fuel and offer services to existing power plants.
The companies have been undertaking the construction of new reactors, where the Chinese nuclear sector currently has 15 reactors in operation and 26 reactors under construction.
