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.”

Irradiated tritium targets may be handled in the Main Cell of the Hot Fuel Examination Facility (HFEF) to support transient safety tests for the New Production Reactor (NPR). To support this activity, the systems at HFEF were examined with the goal of minimizing tritium contamination of HFEF while achieving the requirements of the transient tests. Conceptual design descriptions are provided for required experimental systems and tritium recovery systems.
