Ontario Power Generation is exploring the possibility of a new nuclear power station near Port Hope, engaging with local municipalities and First Nation communities.
The Wesleyville site near Port Hope is set to undergo impact assessments in 2023, with hopes for operational licenses in the 2030s and operation in the 2040s.
The proposed nuclear facility could have a capacity of 8,000 to 10,000 megawatts, surpassing any existing nuclear power stations in Ontario.
Energy Minister Stephen Lecce emphasized the importance of discussions with First Nations and municipalities, highlighting their willingness to engage in future power generation initiatives.
