A major refurbishment project has started at Canada’s Bruce-4 nuclear power unit in Ontario, owner and operator Bruce Power said.
The major component replacement (MCR) programme at Bruce-4, an 807-MW Candu design, is expected to take three years to complete and is the company’s third large-scale refurbishment.
It follows the successful completion of a similar project at Unit 6 and ongoing work on Unit 3, which began in 2023.
