Pickering Nuclear Generating Station

Pickering Nuclear Generating Station is a large facility near Toronto, Canada, that produces electricity using nuclear power. It consists of multiple reactors where uranium fuel undergoes controlled nuclear reactions, generating heat. This heat turns water into steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity that is supplied to homes and businesses. The plant has extensive safety systems to prevent accidents and contains carefully managed radioactive materials to ensure environmental protection. It is a crucial part of Ontario’s energy infrastructure, providing a significant portion of the region’s clean, reliable electricity.
