CLINTON — This month marks 30 years since Exelon Generation's Clinton Power Station began producing energy for more than a million regional homes and businesses.
Now, the public gets a chance to learn more about the facility and the men and women who operate it. A free, family-friendly open house will be held on Wednesday, Sept. 6, from 4 to 7 p.m. in the Clinton Power Station training center, located at 8401 Power Road, six miles east of Clinton. Plant employees and technical experts will be on hand to educate visitors about plant operations, site maintenance, engineering practices, environmental stewardship, radiological safety, emergency preparedness and much more. Visitors can also tour the nuclear plant's control room simulator, which is used for training reactor operators.
Light refreshments and cake will be served.
"We look forward to celebrating our 30th anniversary with the community in DeWitt County this year at our open house. We hope to see a big turnout of local residents and families so we can thank them for supporting us," said Ted Stoner, Clinton Station's site vice president. "With their help, Clinton will be powering this community and delivering clean energy for many years to come."
