Bruce Power

Bruce Power Limited Partnership is a Canadian business partnership composed of several corporations. It exists (as of 2015) as a partnership between TransCanada Corporation (31.6%), BPC Generation Infrastructure Trust (the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement Fund) (61.4%, since they bought most of Cameco's share in 2014), the Power Workers Union (4%) and The Society of Energy Professionals (1.2%). It is the licensed operator of the Bruce Nuclear Generating Station, located on the shores of Lake Huron, roughly 250 kilometres northwest of Toronto, between the towns of Kincardine and Saugeen Shores. This is the largest operating nuclear plant in the world by output (Kashiwazaki is currently closed in Japan)

Bruce power owns eight nuclear reactors on Lake Huron where it leases the Bruce site from Ontario Power Generation. With those eight units in operation, the facility supplies 6,300 megawatts of electricity to Ontario's power grid. That's equivalent to the electricity use of nearly 30 per cent of homes, schools, hospitals and businesses in the province. Bruce Power became the world's largest operating nuclear facility in 2012, when Units 1 and 2 returned to operation after a multibillion-dollar refurbishment project. This achievement returned the site to full operating capacity for the first time in 17 years.

Bruce

The Scots-English language name Bruce arrived in Scotland with the Normans, from the place name Brix of the Manche département in Normandy, France, meaning "the willowlands". Initially promulgated via the descendants of King Robert I of Scotland (Robert the Bruce) (1274-1329), it has been a Scottish surname since medieval times; it is now a common given name.

The variant Lebrix and Le Brix are French variations of the surname.
