BRUCE POWER
In 2015, Bruce Power reached an agreement with the Independent Electricity
System Operator (IESO) to advance a long-term investment program to extend the
life of its nuclear feet and secure the site’s operation until 2064. The Life-Extension
Program started on January 1, 2016, and began with the replacement of older systems during regularly scheduled maintenance outages. As part of the Life-Extension
Program, Bruce Power is carrying out an intensive Major Component Replacement
(MCR) Project, which began in January 2020 and focuses on the replacement of
key reactor components in Units 3-8, including steam generators, pressure tubes,
calandria tubes, and feeder tubes. In Sept. 2025, the Unit 4 MCR progressed to its
removal and replacement series following a strong lead-in after the unit was taken
off-line in February to begin its three-year refurbishment.
