PRAGUE (AP) — The Czech power company CEZ signed a deal Tuesday with Britain’s Rolls-Royce SMR to form a strategic partnership to develop and deploy small modular nuclear reactors. Under the agreement, CEZ will acquire a 20% share in Rolls-Royce SMR for which it will pay several billion Czech crowns (hundreds of millions of dollars).
A single Rolls-Royce SMR power station will occupy the footprint of two football pitches and power approximately one million homes. Rolls-Royce secures £450m to build mini nuclear reactors Skip ...
In August 2024, Rolls-Royce SMR stated it was seeking further investment, for a stake in the subsidiary, to finance the company in 2025. [23] In October 2024, The ČEZ Group took a 20% stake in Rolls-Royce SMR at a cost of "several hundred million pounds"; ČEZ plan to deploy up to 3 GWe of SMR generation capacity in the 2030s in the Czech ...
Rolls-Royce is preparing a close-coupled three-loop PWR design, sometimes called the UK SMR. [104] [105] The power output was originally planned to be 440 MWe, later increased to 470 MWe, which is above the usual range considered to be a SMR. [106] [107] A modular forced draft cooling tower will be used. [107]
In March 2023, it was announced Rolls-Royce would provide the reactors for the new fleet of nuclear submarines in a defence agreement between the UK, US and Australia.
In 2020, EDF Energy put forward plans to build two EPR units, replicating Hinkley Point C and Sizewell C, for a total capacity of 3.2 GWe.In parallel, a Rolls-Royce-led UK SMR consortium announced plans for a low-carbon power station around a small, light-water reactor Rolls-Royce SMR linked with renewable energy generation, hydrogen production and battery storage technologies.

SMRs are expected to require less land, e.g., the 470 MWe 3-loop Rolls-Royce SMR reactor should take 40,000 m 2 (430,000 sq ft), 10% of that needed for a traditional plant. [147] This unit is too large to meet the International Atomic Energy Agency 's definition of a SMR being smaller than 300MWe [ 148 ] and will require more on-site ...
