Rolls-Royce and Exelon Generation have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to pursue the potential for Exelon Generation to operate compact nuclear power stations both in the UK and internationally. Exelon Generation will be using their operational experience to assist Rolls Royce in the development and deployment of the UKSMR.
Can you really turn rubbish into jet fuel? Can potato skins power a plane? Can you capture carbon from the air and create fuel out of it? Here’s everything you need to know about Sustainable Aviation Fuels, and why they’re one of the ways the aviation industry is working to decarbonise flight.
The consortium of companies developing a compact nuclear power station has appointed Tom Samson as its interim chief executive.
Rolls-Royce and Turkey’s EUAS International ICC have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to carry out a study to evaluate both the technical, economical and legal applicability; and also the possibility of joint production of compact nuclear power stations (aka SMR) to underpin clean economic growth
Our consortium warmly welcomes the Government’s decision to advance our new innovative small modular reactor programme.
The UK SMR Consortium, led by Rolls-Royce, welcomes the positive steps and encouragement by the UK Government, in particular, given our plant is designed around its economics, that these benefits have been independently recognised and verified.
Rolls-Royce has awarded a contract to the Nuclear AMRC to develop a module demonstrator for the UK Small Modular Reactor (SMR). The demonstrator will develop an understanding of modules and underpin the early stage design principles that are pertinent to deliver cost and programme certainty for the manufacture, construction and through-life operation of its UK SMR power plants.
Rolls-Royce has today signed a Memorandum of Understanding with state-owned Jordan Atomic Energy Commission (JAEC) to conduct a technical feasibility study for the construction of a Rolls-Royce Small Modular Reactor (SMR) in Jordan, highlighting the growing international interest in small modular nuclear technology.
