The Rolls-Royce Small Modular Reactor (SMR) is a radically new approach to deploying proven nuclear technology, economically and efficiently for a wide range of electricity and industrial applications including power, heat and transport.
Rolls-Royce SMR takes well-understood technology and applies a unique manufacturing philosophy to its fabrication and assembly. The Rolls-Royce SMR offers a modularised, standardised, factory-built product that is affordable, deliverable and investable.
Using pressurised water reactor technology (the most operated reactor type in the world), standard fuel, and incorporating
Rolls-Royce’s unrivalled experience in the design and manufacture of compact nuclear reactors for propulsion systems, the Rolls-Royce SMR will produce up to 470MWe of dispatchable power to support decarbonisation of the energy system.
