That JOY you feel when you're learning about drones during @ExelonGen's STEM academy! Calvert Cliffs WIN was happy to assist as the plant hosted 60+ young women for a visit and tour earlier this month
Yesterday @Exelon's STEM Academy visited Calvert Cliffs Plant. DYK: It operated at 100% power, delivering reliable, carbon-free #nuclear electricity to nearly 2 Mil. homes during 2 of the highest peak demand periods ever recorded including winter storm Grayson earlier this year.
