This webinar will provide information on the UK SMR market– driving low carbon power, developing an affordable power plant that generates electricity using small modular reactors (SMRs).
At the heart of the UK SMR concept lies the innovative repackaging of reliable and proven technology, allowing off-site modular construction using standard components and advanced manufacturing techniques.
SMRs potentially offer significant opportunities to manufacturers. If the UK can take an international lead in technology development, the UK supply chain could produce SMRs for the global market.
The SMR consortium includes Assystem | Atkins | BAM Nuttall | Jacobs | Laing O’Rourke | The National Nuclear Laboratory (NNL) | The Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (NAMRC) | Rolls-Royce | TWI.
Find out more about the Rolls-Royce-led UK SMR consortium at this webinar and how this new technology will play a key role in the UK journey to net-zero by 2050.
Attend this webinar to learn more about:
• Who is involved in the UK SMR consortium
• The role of SMRs in helping to achieve net zero 2050
• Where the UK supply chain can bring valuable expertise to the project
• Timescales for building the SMRs
• SMR technology
• The role of NAMRC
• Supply chain opportunities
• How the supply chain can engage
