The site will manufacture the ‘heavy vessels’ for its Small Modular Reactor power station

Seven power plants should have been decommissioned decades ago, according to a parliamentary committee report

It will support Westinghouse Electric Canada’s efforts to successfully license its eVinci micro reactor in the country

Rolls-Royce is in pursuit of bids for a site that would host factory making small nuclear power plants

The British giant said its business restructuring programme delivers cost savings more quickly than previously anticipated

The collaboration will further explore the maturity of small modular reactor technology and the prospects for deployment of one or several such reactors in Estonia until 2035

The consortium is designing a low-cost factory-built nuclear power station, also known as a small modular reactor

The British multinational engineering company is leading a consortium that is designing a low cost factory-built nuclear plant

The firm said the deployment of small modular reactors could make build costs more predictable and affordable, lowering the price of electricity for consumers

The facility is expected to position the UK to take advantage of nuclear fission new build and small modular reactor deployment
