Nuclear power company Westinghouse Electric and Seaspan ULC said on Thursday they have signed a memorandum of understanding to help expand nuclear projects in Canada and around the world.
With nuclear power garnering renewed interest as a cleaner energy source, countries such as Italy, United Kingdom, China and the United States are looking into nuclear technology firms such as Westinghouse to meet their carbon emission goals.
Westinghouse said Seaspan, which provides services such as shipbuilding and maintenance, has the potential to manufacture key components, including pipe spools and steel structures, used in its nuclear reactors.
