Evolution of procurement and supply conditions for CANDU fuels
Description
In 1955 a decision was made to proceed with construction of a Nuclear Power Demonstration Station (NPD) near Rolphton, Ontario. This project, headed by Atomic Energy of Canada with major involvement of private industry, was the genesis for the development of nuclear electric generation in Canada. This paper reviews one aspect of the Canadian program: the evolution of fuel procurement and supply, which in itself has been a remarkable Canadian achievement. (author)
