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.”

The 110 GHz Electron Cyclotron Heating System on the DIII–D tokamak is being upgraded by the installation of additional gyrotrons, versatile launchers, and an improved control system. A total of six gyrotrons in the 1 MW class will be available for experiments during the 2001 experimental campaign. The installation will be described and the operational experience to date will be presented.
