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.”

Quasi-symmetry condition, which demands that B2 does not depend on one from two angles in Boozer coordinates, is analyzed for stellarators with planar circular axis. In stellarator approximation this condition is reduced here to two equations. The first one imposes a restriction on the helical field which can be satisfied by a proper choice of satellite helical harmonics. At the same time problem remains to suppress poloidal asymmetry of B2 related with toroidicity, the condition described by the second equation.
