Velan Inc. has been awarded a valve order exceeding CAD $20 million from Ontario Power Generation (OPG). The company will supply Emergency Cooling Injection (ECI) valves for three reactors being refurbished at the Pickering Nuclear Generation Station.
These critical valves, rated ASME III class 1, represent the highest standard of safety and reliability in their category. Velan supplied the original valves over 45 years ago and has continuously supported Pickering through its construction and refurbishment program.
The first shipment is scheduled for January 2027 with subsequent deliveries to be completed by January 31, 2028.
The project aligns with global efforts to expand clean energy capacity. It also reinforces Velan’s legacy as a trusted supplier to the nuclear industry for more than 75 years.
