OWEN SOUND, ONT. - Bruce Power's Unit 1 nuclear reactor is synchronized with Ontario’s energy grid for the first time in 15 years, company officials announced Thursday.

It began generating power just before midnight.

“This is a significant achievement for Bruce Power and another tangible milestone that the restart project is nearing completion,” company president and CEO Duncan Hawthorne said in a statement.

Unit 2 isn't far behind and should be synchronized with the grid within weeks, he said.

Doesn't look like they painted it. Paint's probably not good for the environment. But they do have green lawns there.

Give them a few days and they will glow in the dark green lawns.
