Our vision is to provide clean, affordable energy for all.
For nuclear power to be widely adopted and meaningfully contribute to the global effort to decarbonise, it needs to be commercially investable and reliably delivered.
The global challenge around decarbonisation is huge, with an increasing demand for clean, affordable electricity set to increase, driven by:
Increasing electrification of systems, including transport and heating systems
A growing hydrogen economy, where clean forms of hydrogen generation need clean electricity at large scale
The emergence of e-fuels and synthetic aviation fuels to enable decarbonisation of transport
An increasing demand for energy, driven by population growth and increasing global development
An increasing demand for constant forms of power to support a decarbonising electricity grid and growing technology industries, such as data centres.

What the Rolls-Royce SMR approach delivers
Repeatable cost, driven by factory manufactured product
Clean, reliable electricity at scale, at a price competitive with intermittent renewables
Rapid deployment - four years (nth of a kind) on-site construction time*
Low risk, single entity delivery model under an EMA contract
Minimised site disruption during construction (average of 500 people on site removes requirement for extensive worker infrastructure)
*for a fleet unit
Highly scalable through innovative production methodology
Can fit within existing infrastructure (grid, transport)
Compact footprint increases site flexibility and maximises potential plant locations (including replacement for existing coal or gas-fired plants)
Indirect cooling option increases siting flexibility
Sustainable, long-term job creation, in factories and supply chain, avoiding the boom and bust cycle associated with large one-off infrastructure projects
Multi-use electricity and/or heat output adaptable to on and off-grid applications
Lower capital cost, risk and build time enables investment by commercial entities on a standard debt and equity basis
Repeatable, low-cost, factory product rather than large one-off infrastructure project
Low completion risk given standardised manufactured nature of the product and repeatable turnkey solution
