The Leibstadt nuclear power plant in Switzerland

The Leibstadt Nuclear Power Plant (KKL) has awarded a long-term contract extension to GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GEH) to provide outage services for the plant in Leibstadt, Switzerland.

"We have supported KKL with outage and inspection services since it went into operation in 1984 and we are proud to continue this strong working relationship," said John Mackleer, Senior Vice President, Field Services for GEH.

Under the extension, which runs through 2030, GEH will continue to provide a full portfolio of outage and inspection services for the 1,275 Mw boiling water reactor, the most powerful nuclear power plant in Switzerland.

KKL generates enough carbon-free energy to supply two million Swiss households and represents approximately 15 percent of Swiss energy production.

Michael Short came to MIT in the fall of 2001 as an 18-year-old first-year who grew up in Boston's North Shore. He immediately felt at home, so much so that he's never really left. It's not that Short has no interest in exploring the world beyond the confines of the Institute, as he is an energetic and venturesome fellow. It's just that almost everything he hopes to achieve in his scientific career can, in his opinion, be best pursued at this university. Last year - after collecting four MIT degre ... read more
