Aecon Group said on 21 September 2026 that Ontario Power Generation (OPG) has awarded contracts for the Pickering Nuclear Generating Station Refurbishment Project with an aggregate value of $3 billion. Aecon's own share is $1.75 billion.
Aecon's 50/50 joint venture with AtkinsRéalis has been awarded a $1.7 billion contract for the Unit 5 Retube, Feeder and Boiler Replacement project, described as the first unit of that work. A consortium of Aecon and Siemens Energy has been awarded a $1.3 billion contract for the Turbine Generator Replacement project, in which Aecon holds a majority interest.
Aecon says its share will be added to its Construction segment backlog in the third quarter of 2026. Project execution is expected to start in January 2027, subject to regulatory approval, and similar work on Units 6, 7 and 8 is expected in later phases, also subject to regulatory approval.
The release gives its values with a dollar sign and no currency code.
