Rolls-Royce Small Modular Reactors

The talk will centre on how the Rolls-Royce SMR is a highly modularised, factory‑built design that underpins the programme’s ability to deliver true Build Certainty. The SMR is conceived as a modular, pre‑fabricated, pre‑tested power plant, with the majority of assemblies transported to site and integrated within a controlled site assembly factory environment, a strategy that reduces cost and schedule risk while improving predictability and quality.  This approach—supported by a holistic, integrated power‑station design philosophy—uses proven Pressurised Water Reactor technology, standardised module interfaces, and mass‑manufacturable components to minimise variability and enable repeatable delivery, ultimately accelerating deployment and ensuring a reliable, licensable product.
