Three Mile Island is a nuclear power plant located in central Pennsylvania about 10 miles south of Harrisburg in Londonderry Township.
Exelon owns and operates Unit 1 of the power plant which is built on an island in the Susquehanna River and began commercial operation on September 2, 1974. Three Mile Island Unit 1 is a pressurized water reactor designed by Babcock and Wilcox. The unit is capable of generating 837 net megawatts (MW), enough electricity to power over 800,000 average American homes. Three Mile Island Unit 2 is owned by First Energy Company of Akron which was damaged during an accident in 1979 and never reopened.
Come along on a tour of the facilities, and get a glimpse into what it takes to make nuclear energy.
