Callaway Nuclear Generating Station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Callaway Nuclear Generating Station is a nuclear power plant located on a 5,228-acre (21 km²) site in Callaway County, Missouri, near Fulton, Missouri. It began operating on October 18, 1984. The plant, which is the state's only commercial nuclear unit, has one Westinghouse pressurized water reactor. It is fully owned by the Ameren Corporation and operated by AmerenUE.
According to the EIA; in 2001, Callaway set a plant record for capacity utilization with a capacity factor of 101.1 percent (ratio of actual output to the amount of electricity that could be produced) ranking it among the World's top reactors.
Its workers recently replaced all four of its steam generators in 63 days, 13 hours, setting a world record for a four-loop plant.
