OPG¡¯s Darlington-1 nuclear reactor reconnects to grid |
|
Ontario Power Generation's 935-MW Darlington-1 nuclear reactor in Clarington reconnected to the grid Friday and was sending more than 500 MW to the grid into early Friday afternoon. A spokesman said the reactor would be put on hold at 60% for testing but was expected to return to full power during the Christmas holiday weekend. The unit was taken down this past Tuesday for turbine generator work. Meanwhile, 12 of 16 nuclear reactors in the province were operating at high power, totaling 8,579 MW. Darlington-1's output to the grid reduced nuclear outages to less than 2,500 MW. (Platts,22/12/2006)
