  • On behalf of CME, I’m pleased to voice our support of the proposed Bruce C project. This undertaking, which would bring up to 4,800 megawatts of new nuclear capacity to the Bruce Power site in Kincardine, Ontario, would go a long way in meeting the predicted increases in energy demands throughout Ontario over the next three decades. Additionally, the project would bring result in economic growth and revenue creation within the Grey-Bruce municipality, and more broadly Ontario and Canada, as our manufacturers continue to provide components to Bruce power’s strong domestic supply chain. Hence, the benefits of this expansion are clear. This site presents a unique opportunity for Bruce Power to expand its facilities and provide a greater quantity of clean, reliable, nuclear power. Moreover, with local expertise already available and transmission corridors in place, the expansion of this site will be seamless and minimally disruptive. Having worked closely with Bruce ...

  • According to the IESO, population growth, urbanization, and an increasingly electrified economy indicate that power demand in Ontario may double from 42,000 MW to 88,000 MW by 2050. Therefore, the need for the Bruce C expansion is clear. Aside from its contribution to Ontario's electricity grid, Bruce C will also significantly accelerate economic growth within the Grey-Bruce Area. The project will bring a much-needed surge of employment opportunities to local communities. As a result, I am confident that the Bruce C project will pass the impact assessment and come to fruition soon. Nevertheless, the key question remains: which reactor design or technology will be implemented? Using CANDU MONARK reactors would build upon the previous CANDU reactor iterations already used at Bruce A and Bruce B. Alternatively, the project could adopt Small Modular Reactors, like Ontario Power Generation is doing with the BWRX-300. Personally, I hope Bruce Power will also ...

  • I have been involved in the nuclear business for nearly 50 years, and have components of my design in both Bruce A and B, as well as all other CANDU plants and PWR plants as well.  I have worked at Bruce as recently as 2018, in the steam generator replacement programs. I am currently teaching at Conestoga College in areas like Advanced Energy Management, including long=term energy planning.   I applaud Bruce Power, the Government snf OPG for starting this journey.  I agree with the IESO assessment that a significant increase in Ontario's nuclear energy is warranted. Regarding Bruce C, several things should be addressed: 1. What is the long term plan for Bruce A and Bruce B?  The reason I point this out is that starting in 2041, about the time Bruce C would be coming on-line, Bruce A will be running out of refurbished life (30 years from return to service date of 2011 for Units 1&2).  Is it the plan to refurbish these units ...

  • It's helpful that people are recognizing the need for clean energy and the efficiency that Nuclear brings to Ontario from both Bruce Power and Ontario Power Generation. The team of nuclear professionals is exerienced, strong, and capable of expanding not only in Ontario but across all provinces as well as internationally. This is the best solution to meet our energy needs safely, reliably, and efficiently.

  • I fully support the construction of the Bruce C new nuclear power plant in Ontario. Nuclear energy is essential in our fight against climate change, providing clean, reliable power that significantly reduces our carbon emissions. This project will create good jobs, boost the local economy, and ensure a stable energy supply for the future. Given that the site already exists and is colocated with the existing two Bruce A and B sites, the environmental impact will be minimal, while also contained by an organization (Bruce Power) That has an excellent track record of operating responsibly and safely, and with excellent indigienous engagement. This is a no-brainer of a project to proceed! Nuclear power is incredibly reliable and safe, with modern plants designed to the highest safety standards. Canada already has a strong track record of safely operating nuclear facilities for decades, demonstrating our ability to manage this technology effectively. Plus, it offers energy ...

  • Ontario requires greater electricity capacity from low emissions sources to meet future demands. This should be coupled with conservation measures; however further electrification is needed and building this capacity takes time. The Bruce C project is the most viable option for Ontario. Bruce Power and the regulatory bodies involved in assessment and approvals and oversight have proven to be resposnsible in their approach. With ongoing committments to environmental monitoring by governments and local groups (including Indigenous groups), socioeconomic studies and ongoing public engagement, this project can be implemented responsibly. I am writing to express my support.

  • Canada and the world needs more carbon free, base load, affordable electricity to help combat climate change.  Bruce C is an ideal site for 4,800MWe of new Nuclear generation, with world class management, workforce, a supportive local community and with Bruce Power an organization that is demonstrating that it can successfully manage large projects of this type.  The site a Bruce offers the earliest oppertunity for Ontario to significantly increse nuclear generation in the province. Canada has been very successful in developing, and safely opearting canadian developed technology in the form of the CANDU reator.   The design is being updated and enhanced to provide a 1,000 MWe unit known as MONARK.  The selection of a MONARK for Bruce C would contine to provide Canada with fuel security (the fuel does not need to be enriched, a technology not avaiable in Canada), while maximizing local jobs, as the Canadian supply chain is focused on the supply and ...

  • I noticed the following in the Bruce-C IPD (Initial Project Description) : “Project detail information has been included in this IPD to support many of the questions raised during the Pre-Planning Phase of the Project. As part of the Project, Bruce Power will be completing a Transportation Planning Assessment. A Traffic Impact Study Update was completed in 2017 to capture traffic associated with ongoing operations and Major Component Replacement [MCR].”   In the on-going MCR project, large items like steam generators are shipped by rail to the terminal at Goderich, and then trucked to the Bruce site by Hwy. 21.   Anticipating the Bruce C project, wouldn’t it make more sense to build a rail spur along Hwy. 21, and skip the transfer to truck transport?   The Bruce site used to have a rail connection via Paisley, but the tracks were removed in ...
