Canada Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry François-Philippe Champagne visited Westinghouse January 15 to receive an update on the progress our Canada eVinci™ microreactor team has made since receiving federal funding in March 2022.
In partnership with Bruce Power, Westinghouse recently completed a feasibility study with conclusive results that the eVinciTM micro reactor can provide necessary, clean and cost-competitive energy to decentralized, off-grid markets in Canada. The report focuses on key market opportunities, including remote communities and industrial mines. It also emphasizes the benefits the technology can provide in support of the government policy to meet decarbonization goals in Canada.
