Cisler applied for a construction permit for Fermi 1 in January 1956. A new company was formed to build the plant, the Power Reactor Development Company, or PRDC. [14] During a series of meetings with the AEC's Safeguards Committee in March, PRDC presented its work to date, but much of it remained preliminary.
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 electric power output of the Fermi I breeder reactor was 61 MW(e), not 94. Perhaps it was eventually expected to get to 94 or more, but it never reached that power. (Reference: American Nuclear Society "World List of Nuclear Power Plants") Anuke 16:09, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
That same day, Enrico Fermi, the Italian physicist instrumental in the development of nuclear technology, loaded the first uranium slug into the reactor’s core. ... At 10:48 p.m., power reached ...
[1] These are contrasted to generation I reactors, which refer to the early prototype of power reactors, such as Shippingport, Magnox/UNGG, AMB, Fermi 1, and Dresden 1. [1] The last commercial Gen I power reactor was located at the Wylfa Nuclear Power Station [2] and ceased operation at the end of 2015.
DTE's Fermi 2 nuclear plant in Newport has entered its 22nd maintenance and refueling outage. Staff will work on equipment during this time.
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.
