As Bruce Power continues predevelopment work, public input is being sought on the potential Bruce C nuclear power expansion project in Ontario.

Bruce Power recently submitted its initial project description to the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada for an expansion that would add up to 4,800 MWe. Earlier this year, the Canadian government announced up to C$50 million ($36.8 million) in funding for the Bruce C project, which would be Canada’s first major expansion of a large nuclear plant in decades.

Bruce Power has announced the completion of its Unit 3 reactor removal—a milestone on its Major Component Replacement (MCR) project aimed at extending the Bruce plant’s operational life through 2064.
