Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Yankee Rowe Nuclear Power Station (decommissioned) was a nuclear power plant in Rowe, Massachusetts, that operated from 1960 to 1992. The Yankee Nuclear Power Station - also known as "Yankee Rowe" - was the third commercial nuclear power plant built in the United States and the first built in New England. The 167-megawatt electric pressurized-water Yankee Rowe plant, located on the Deerfield River in the town of Rowe in western Massachusetts, permanently shut down on February 26, 1992 after more than 31 years of producing electricity for New England electric consumers. Construction of the plant was completed in 1960 at a cost of $39 million. During its 32-year operating history, the Yankee plant generated over 34 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity, and had a lifetime capacity factor of 74%.
