Next Rolls-Royce SMR Supplier Conference Announced
This event, the latest in a series of conferences and ‘meet the buyer’ sessions, will help create a diverse and resilient supply chain that will be essential in deploying a global fleet of Rolls-Royce SMR’s factory-built nuclear power plants.
Ruth Todd, Rolls-Royce SMR’s Operations and Supply Chain Director, said: “Our Supply Chain Programme was launched at the first Supplier Conference in Sheffield last year, where we were joined by hundreds of representatives from every level of the global supply chain.
“The next conference, one of several planned for 2025, will be another important step on our journey as we continue to grow and mature as a project delivery organisation - in the UK and around the world.”
Building a world class supply chain, with a strong SME element, is critical to Rolls-Royce SMR’s success and to delivering social value in the communities where it operates.
The Rolls-Royce SMR offers a radically different approach to delivering new nuclear power. Each ‘factory-built’ nuclear power station will provide enough low-carbon electricity to power a million homes for more than 60 years and will create thousands of long-term, high-skilled jobs.

Notes to Editors:
The Rolls-Royce SMR is the UK’s first domestic nuclear technology in more than 20 years - providing a British solution to a global energy dilemma. Each small modular reactor will produce enough stable, affordable, emission-free energy to power a million homes for at least 60 years.
Rolls-Royce SMR has received UK Government funding of £210m as part of Phase 2 of the Low-Cost Nuclear Challenge Project, administered by UKRI, which has been supplemented by £280m of private capital. The aim of this Government support is to accelerate the Rolls-Royce SMR design and pass at least Step 2 of the GDA (Generic Design Assessment) regulatory process carried out by the nuclear industry’s independent regulators (The Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR), Environment Agency and Natural Resources Wales).
Rolls-Royce SMR welcomes comments and questions about the Rolls-Royce SMR design. This feedback will be incorporated into the GDA process and may be published anonymously on the Rolls-Royce SMR GDA website and used during dialogue with our regulators.
