The Wylfa site on Ynys Môn (Anglesey) in North Wales will be the first UK site for three Rolls-Royce Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). Ynys Môn’s strong nuclear heritage and engaged community make it the ideal location to launch our UK fleet programme. This is the first step in a 100-year commitment to clean energy, innovation, and community partnership. Chris Cholerton, Rolls-Royce SMR Chief Executive, said: “We are honoured to establish our UK fleet programme at Wylfa. This is a tremendous opportunity for North Wales and the wider UK, as we build a resilient supply chain and launch a major export programme.” We will deliver nuclear power very differently by utilising modularisation and a high level of factory build, therefore minimising the impact on local people from infrastructure delivery. We are excited to be working with the local community to create jobs and growth and establishing an enduring legacy for future generations. #RollsRoyceSMR #GBEN #CleanEnergy #NuclearPower #Wylfa #NorthWales #YnysMôn #SMR #Innovation #CommunityPartnership #EnergyTransition
