American Nuclear

Ohio almost had a fourth nuclear power plant.  In 1976, Ohio Edison (and partners CEI, Toledo Edison, Duquesne Power & Light, and Pennsylvania Power Company) announced plans to build a two-unit nuclear plant in Berlin Heights, Ohio.  It ordered Babcock & Wilcox nuclear steam supply systems – and it ordered the largest available at 1260 MWe each.  However, with the need for extra generating capacity rapidly declining, and facing prospects of increasing cost for loans and regulatory uncertainty, Ohio Edison cancelled these plans in 1980 without having performed any work other than obtaining the site, which today is called the Edison Woods Reserve.
