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.”

A 1-GWe-class magnetic fusion power plant conceptual design emphasizing advanced tokamak physics and advanced technologies is designated ARIES-AT. The point design and accessible operating space is described. Key trades and sensitivities are presented to illuminate the drivers of both direct cost and cost of electricity (COE).
