Bruce Power and NPX extend collaboration

Bruce Power and NPX (Nuclear Promise X) are strengthening their partnership with the signing of a renewed Master Services Agreement, focusing on innovation, artificial intelligence, key projects, and advancing new nuclear generation at the Bruce site.

The five-year extension, valued at more than $50 million and including options for further renewals, emphasizes NPX’s ongoing role as a crucial innovation partner.

NPX is expanding its footprint in Bruce County with a new office in Port Elgin to accommodate its growing workforce and deepen its collaboration with Bruce Power. This growth reflects Bruce Power’s “Canadian at our Core” commitment, which prioritizes delivering safe, reliable power to Ontario, producing cancer-fighting medical isotopes for the global market, and keeping 95 per cent of spending within Canada to support the economy and local jobs.

“Bruce Power is one of the most ambitious and future-focused nuclear operators in the world,” said Bharath Nangia, Chief Executive Officer, NPX. “This extended agreement builds on years of meaningful results and signals the next phase of growth in our work together, from modernizing today’s operations, to supporting the advancement of new nuclear generation at the Bruce site. We’re thrilled to continue scaling our impact.”

“NPX has delivered strong results across our operations and transformational initiatives,” said Laurent Seigle, Bruce Power’s Executive Vice-President, Projects. “This agreement allows Bruce Power to continue to collaborate with NPX on innovation and projects as we work to secure the future and look ahead to the next generation of nuclear at the Bruce site.”
