"In two years, there will be very strong demand on the market, as new reactors start operating, and as new contracts with the existing fleet kick in," Areva SA's Chief Commercial Officer Ruben Lazo said in a March 26 interview at the company's headquarters in Paris. "I'm sure that Japan will restart a few reactors this year, and complete all necessary measures to restart many others in 2013 and 2014."
