The Enrico Fermi Nuclear Generating Station is a nuclear power plant on the shore of Lake Erie near Monroe, in Frenchtown Charter Township, Michigan on approximately 1,000 acres (400 ha). All units of the plant are operated by the DTE Energy Electric Company and owned (100 percent) by parent company DTE Energy.
The event will begin at 5:30 p.m. in the student concourse of the Career Technology Center, home to both the Nuclear Engineering Technology program and the Enrico Fermi Atomic Power Plant (Fermi I ...
Fermi 1 was the United States' only demonstration-scale breeder reactor, built during the 1950s at the Enrico Fermi Nuclear Generating Station on the western shore of Lake Erie south of Detroit, Michigan.
The Monroe Power Plant is a coal-fired power plant located in Monroe, Michigan, on the western shore of Lake Erie. It is owned by the DTE Energy Electric Company, a subsidiary of DTE Energy. The plant was constructed in the early 1970s and began operating in 1971. [1] The plant has 4 generating units, each with an output of 850 megawatts.
DTE's Fermi 2 nuclear plant in Newport has entered its 22nd maintenance and refueling outage. Staff will work on equipment during this time.
As part of DTE Energy's clean energy settlement agreement, the Monroe Power Plant on East Front Street will be fully retired in 2032.
This era marked another construction phase that included the start of the Fermi 2 nuclear plant in 1970 and Monroe Power Plant Units 1-4, which came online from 1971-74. Construction also began in 1972 on the Greenwood Energy Center — the company's first inland plant designed for both oil - and nuclear-fueled generating units.
We Almost Lost Detroit, a 1975 Reader's Digest book by John G. Fuller, [1] presents a history of Fermi 1, America's first commercial breeder reactor, with emphasis on the 1966 partial nuclear meltdown. [2] [3] It took four years for the reactor to be repaired, and then performance was poor.
