Kewaunee Power Station
Kewaunee, Dominion's fourth nuclear station, generates 556 megawatts of electricity from its single unit. That's enough to meet the needs of 140,000 homes.
The station began commercial operation in 1974. Dominion acquired the station in July 2005.
Kewaunee is located in Carlton, Wisconsin, on Lake Michigan about 35 miles southeast of Green Bay. The exact translation of "Kewaunee" is uncertain, but is commonly believed to be a Native American word meaning "river of the lost."
About the Environment
Continuing studies show that Kewaunee has very minimal effects on the environment. A radiological monitoring program has shown virtually no environmental impact from operation of the station.
