Lynchburg-based BWX Technologies Inc. announced on Wednesday that its subsidiary, BWXT Nuclear Energy Canada Inc. (BWXT NEC), has been awarded a five-year contract worth $34 million in Canadian dollars to supply seven primary heat transport motors to the electric company Bruce Power.
The motors are part of Bruce Power’s program that will extend the life of six of its nuclear reactors in Ontario.
The primary heat transport motors are required to drive the main circulating pumps used to push heavy water through the reactor core into the steam generators.
