[A. CANDU Technology] [B. The Industry] [C. Cost/Benefit] [D. Safety/Liability] [E. Waste] [F. Security/Non-Proliferation] [G. Uranium] [H. Research Reactors] [I. Other R&D] [J. Further Info] On June 4, 2002, Canada marked the 40th anniversary of the first electricity generated in this country by nuclear fission. The site of this historic event was known as “NPD” (Nuclear Power Demonstration), a small, prototype nuclear power plant located on the Ottawa River just east of Rolphton, Ontario, about 200 km north-west of Ottawa along the Ontario-Quebec border. NPD is the ancestor of the CANDU reactors that provide a significant amount of Ontario’s electricity today, as well as at sites in Quebec, New Brunswick, and overseas in South Korea, Romania, Argentina, India, Pakistan and (under construction) in China. The story of this historic achievement of 1962 begins shortly before the outbreak of World War II, with the German discovery of nuclear fission. Scientists everywhere immediately real
