Nuclear power generated 62 per cent of Ontario\u2019s electricity for the year of 2014, recently released data shows.<\/p>\n

The Independent Electrical System Operator<\/a> (IESO)\u00a0bought 94.9 terawatt hours of electricity from nuclear generators in 2014. That\u2019s 62 percent of electricity delivered through Ontario\u2019s grid, up from 59 per cent in 2013.<\/p>\n

\"Energy<\/p>\n

Better yet \u2013 the nuclear power industry delivered all this electricity at roughly six cents per kilowatt-hour. That\u2019s well below the average price paid by Ontario consumers of 8.5 cents.<\/p>\n

In just six years, nuclear has increased to 63 per cent from 53 per cent in 2008, according to the IESO.<\/p>\n

This confirms the wisdom of Ontario\u2019s strategic investment in nuclear energy and shows its enduring benefits.<\/p>\n

Nuclear power continues to provide Ontario with safe, reliable, and carbon-free electricity at a price well below the rates set in Ontario\u2019s regulated-price plan. The province\u2019s nuclear electricity providers \u2013 Ontario Power Generation Inc.<\/a> and Bruce Power<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 received approximately six cents per kilowatt hour in 2014.<\/p>\n

In addition to affordable electricity, the nuclear industry provided significant economic benefits to Ontario through thousands of durable, high-paying jobs. According to Canada\u2019s Manufacturers and Exporters<\/a>, the nuclear industry employs about 60,000 people directly and in its supply chains.<\/p>\n

Rejuvenating ten of Ontario\u2019s 18 nuclear reactors would add thousands more jobs between 2016 and 2031.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
