Quad Cities Clean Energy Center operators quickly extinguished a small fire on a battery early this morning in a Unit 2 electrical room located outside of the reactor building. There were no injuries to plant personnel during the fire and no impact to public health or safety. The fire was extinguished by the station’s onsite, highly trained fire brigade.
