Ontario Power Generation’s (OPG) plans to build four small modular reactors (SMRs) are part of an enhanced provincial focus on nuclear energy that has spurred a Burlington-based company to expand and create jobs.
Celeros Flow Technology (Celeros FT) will expand its existing facility to become the first Ontario-based manufacturer of nuclear-qualified pumps. This expansion could also serve OPG’s operations and refurbishment needs at the existing Darlington and Pickering generating stations.
As well as expanding its current operations in Burlington, Celeros FT has committed to finalizing a business case for a new nuclear valve production facility, within Ontario, as they look to play an enhanced role in nuclear growth in the province.
