North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington
“The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

High-power experiments with waves in the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) have been performed on the DIII-D tokamak since 1988. In the course of these experiments, it has been necessary to carry out some development of the relevant technology. These developments, primarily in the areas of the plasma/antenna interface, high-power transmission line components, and transmission line configurations, are reviewed in this paper. They have led to a number of recommendations for specifying systems in next-generation tokamaks.
