Bruce Power News Back to video
Just over a year ago, Bruce Power raised the curtain on its Major Component Replacement Project with the start of its Unit 6 refurbishment. It was the start of a challenging 2020 in the face of a once-in-a-generation pandemic.
Today, Canada’s only private sector nuclear generator is on track with the Unit 6 project, including the successful removal of 50,000 feet of feeder tube from the vault and the event-free removal of the lower feeders – a first in CANDU refurbishments. A collective effort by Bruce Power workers and the skilled trades has allowed the first phase of MCR to stay on track, despite a two-month delay when COVID-19 arrived in North America. The company, with the support of supply chain partners, is also celebrating the completion of manufactured components for the Unit 6 MCR.
