Durham Region in Southern Ontario is home to Ontario Power Generation's (OPG's) two nuclear stations — the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station and the Pickering Nuclear Generating Station. These stations have a combined generating capacity of about 6,600 megawatts and provide Ontarians with about 35% of their electricity needs.

Key projects and initiatives
At OPG, we have a purpose that goes beyond generating clean, reliable, low-cost power – we’re helping generate a stronger, cleaner, more prosperous Ontario.
Generating power with purpose
Our role in Ontario isn’t just measured by kilowatts (although we’re really good at producing them); it’s measured by our relationships, the impact we make and the future we leave to the next generation. That’s why we strive to be good corporate citizens who care about the environmental, economic, and social wellbeing of all Ontario.
Generating community spirit
OPG’s Corporate Citizenship Program focuses on these areas:
- Environment
- Education, and
- Community (health and safety, arts and culture, youth amateur sport, humanitarian and local causes), including support of Indigenous initiatives.
We are proud of our many community partnerships in the Durham Region community which include Scientists in School, Toronto & Region Conservation Authority, Rouge Valley Health System Foundation (Ajax & Pickering Site), and the Oshawa & Durham Region Métis Council’s Heritage Celebration.
Plus, student awards along with numerous other initiatives.
