The most interesting project that Rolls Royce is carrying out is the SMR. Rolls-Royce SMR has been established as an independent company, drawing on decades of Rolls-Royce experience in nuclear design and engineering, while capturing industry leading expertise, support from the UK Government and investment from world class companies. Rolls Royce SMR was formed to develop an innovative approach to deploying nuclear power. This vision is backed by the UK Government, world class investors and an international nuclear operator.
The regulatory process has been kicked off, and will likely be complete in the middle of 2024. Company is trying to work with the UK Government, and others to get going now placing orders, so we can get power on grid by 2029.
