Emcor Group, a provider of electrical and mechanical construction and facilities services, has announced that its subsidiary Comstock Canada has received contracts from Bruce Power in connection with a major refurbishment of nuclear generators at the Bruce A nuclear power plant in Tiverton, Ontario.
According to Comstock Canada, it will be responsible for providing mechanical and electrical construction services supporting the refurbishment of the facility’s four 900MW-class CANDU type nuclear reactor units.
The scope of work involves low-pressure service water and high-pressure recirculation water pipe replacement and flushing, in addition to the filed execution of the valve replacement program.
It said that the 2,300-acre site houses the Bruce A and B generating stations, each of which holds four CANDU reactors. Six of those nuclear units are currently operational and combined produce more than 4,700MW, enough to power 20% of the hospitals, homes and schools in Ontario.
Geoff Birkbeck, CEO of Comstock Canada, said: “Comstock has a good relationship with Bruce Power since we performed the removal and replacement of steam generators on Units 1 and 2 at its nuclear power generating facility, and then continued with activities in support of that facility.”
