The newsmen who Douglas Point nuclear 'station were interested in learn- ing that each of the turbine- generating units at Pickering nuclear power station will have visited | power Point 7s power station more than 2% times the output of electrical energy of that of the Douglas Point generating station. The Pickering power plant will produce in the first phase over five times the a- mount of electrical energy that Douglas Point nuclear power station will deliver. Ontario Hydro also has under considera- tion extending the Pickering Generating Station to four 540,- 000 kilowatt generating units at the site just east of French- man Bay on Lake Onario.
