UK Manufacturing Capability


• The UK is the 6th largest manufacturer in the world (slightly behind France)

• The UK is the tenth largest exporter of manufactured goods in the world. It has a comparative advantage in high-technology sub sectors, with notable strengths in chemicals and medical, precision and optical instruments

• The UK has the 3rd highest level of foreign direct investment in the world with only the USA and China better

• Manufacturing contributed 15% of the total gross value added (GVA) of the UK economy in 2010, equating to £143bn. This makes it the second most valuable sector, after wholesale and retail trade. The relative contribution of manufacturing to the economy fell from 16% in 2001 to 12% in 2007

• In terms of employment, manufacturing is the fourth largest sector in the UK, employing ~2.5mn or ~10% of the entire UK workforce

• The largest manufacturing sub-sectors in the UK (in terms of GVA) are food & beverages, chemicals & pharmaceuticals and fabricated metal products

• Until Q4 2011, manufacturing was one of the few parts of the UK economy to see 2 years of uninterrupted growth. However, Q4 saw the sector contract by ~1%. But early results from Jan 2012 show a return to growth

• Since 1990, industrial (mostly manufacturing) electricity demand has remained fairly constant at ~100TWh. Its proportion of overall electricity demand has somewhat declined from 37% in 1990 to 32% in 2010

Summary


Manufacturing represents a significant proportion of overall UK electricity demand

• Since 1990, industrial (mostly manufacturing) electricity demand has remained fairly constant at ~100TWh. Its proportion of overall electricity demand has somewhat declined from 37% in 1990 to 32% in 2010. Figure 7 illustrates this trend

L’Ile de France (Paris region)Most headquarters of the key French actors are located in the Paris region: AREVA, EDF, Alstom, GDF Suez, Nexans, Assystem, Bureau Veritas, Egis Industrie, Altran, SPIE, Vinci, Bouygues, Freyssinet

Rhône-Alpes (Lyon region)Most nuclear power plants in France are located in the Rhône Valley, hence, there are a lot of key suppliers based out there: Boccard, Garlock, JST, Reel, Rolls-Royce, Velan, Vanatome

Provence Alpes Côte-d'Azur (Marseille region)Thanks to the presence of the CEA in Cadarache and in Marcoules, as well as the ITER project, several key players have their HQs in that region: ONET, SNEF, Cybernétix, Astriane, Nuvia, Weir

NormandyNumerous suppliers and key players have subsidiaries in this region (Alstom, Areva, EDF next to the Hague, Penly and Flamanville respectively).

BurgundyPNB competitiveness cluster and major industrial sites such as using Creusot Forge

Other regions with special know-how in that industry: Nord-Pas-de-Calais (Lille region), Lorraine (Nancy region) and Pays de Loire (Nantes region)
