Today marks a major step forward with two significant developments in our modularisation delivery strategy. With contracts now in place for the UK and Czechia – and, if successful, Sweden - Rolls-Royce SMR is delivering a fleet programme and assembling the strongest team to deliver. We’ve selected Aker Solutions as our primary Module Partner. Aker brings deep expertise from large‑scale oil and gas modular delivery into nuclear for the first time, applying proven, industrialised approaches that drive efficiency, quality and certainty. We are also launching our UK factory site search, building on extensive engagement with potential locations across the UK, with a decision expected later this year. Rolls-Royce SMR CEO, Chris Cholerton, said: "As the only SMR company in Europe with multiple projects under contract, we are now focused on successful fleet deployment. To enable this, we will establish a UK factory facility and bring together a world-leading supply chain to enable our modular, repeatable power plant solution. “The announcement of our UK factory site search and our agreement with Aker Solutions will support our aim to transform the way nuclear projects are delivered.” #RollsRoyceSMR #Nuclear #Modularisation #EnergySecurity #UKIndustry
