The UK’s next generation of nuclear power stations will be designed and built by a British company, creating thousands of skilled jobs, boosting the UK supply chain, and driving economic growth.
After a rigorous two-year selection process, Great British Nuclear has confirmed that Rolls-Royce SMR has been chosen to lead the future of Small Modular Reactors in the UK.
Chris Cholerton, Chief Executive of Rolls-Royce SMR, said:
“This is a day to celebrate a milestone achievement… deploying three of our units will drive domestic growth by creating thousands of highly skilled, well paid jobs and UK supply chain opportunities.”
This is not only about affordable, clean energy — it’s a strategic step toward national energy security and industrial leadership, with Rolls-Royce SMR already securing multiple commitments in Europe, underlining the strength of British innovation.
A proud moment for UK manufacturing, engineering, and the nuclear industry.
