Electrification will contribute to decarbonisation of aviation and electrical technologies and capabilities can also be leveraged for civil, defence and marine applications. Smaller, all-electric aircraft will enable more efficient, quieter and zero-emission air mobility, while hybrid-electric systems increase range and enable more sustainable solutions for larger regional aircraft. The emerging market of advanced air mobility, which includes electrical vertical take-off (eVTOL) aircraft as well more conventional electric commuter aircraft, is aiming to enable a new way of using air mobility on urban and regional routes. | Electrification will contribute to decarbonisation of aviation and electrical technologies and capabilities can also be leveraged for civil, defence and marine applications.

Rolls-Royce expects SMR to receive government approval by 2024 and expected to be fully integrated into the grid by 2030. | Rolls-Royce expects SMR to receive government approval by 2024 and expected to be fully integrated into the grid by 2030. | ||
The Rolls-Royce SMR is low | The Rolls-Royce SMR has the following benefits: | ||
* '''Low cost''' | |||
A highly competitive source of ‘always on’ clean energy, meeting global challenges in an affordable and investable way. Rolls-Royce SMR is a low-cost clean energy solution, using proven and commercially available technology to deliver a fully integrated, factory built nuclear power plant. | |||
* '''Deliverable''' | |||
Rolls Royce SMR will use the breadth of the UK supply chain, which is able to contribute more than 80% of each SMR by value – focusing on standardised, commercially available and off-the-shelf components. Approximately 90% of manufacturing and assembly activities are carried out in factory conditions, helping to maintain an extremely high-quality product - reducing on-site disruption and supporting international roll out. | |||
* '''Global and Scalable''' | |||
The need for clean energy has created a global demand for SMR as countries look for ways to provide reliable ways to achieve net zero. | |||
The factory-built model is entirely scalable. Rolls-Royce SMR will support international efforts to decarbonise energy systems, with a forecast to target £250bn of exports. Memorandums of Understanding are already in place with Estonia, Turkey and the Czech Republic. The Rolls-Royce SMR programme is forecast to create 40,000 regional UK jobs by 2050 and generate £52bn in economic benefit. | |||
The compact footprint increases site flexibility and maximises potential plant locations, including replacement for existing coal or gas-fired plants. It will occupy approximately one tenth of the size of a conventional nuclear generation site, helping to reduce local environmental impacts. | |||
* '''Investable''' | |||
By design, SMR is focused on attracting all forms of private capital to support the build out of global SMR demand. With a proven factory built commoditised approach, our SMR will offer investors and lenders a degree of confidence that will enable future customers to access a range of capital options to finance their SMR purchase. | |||
For nuclear energy to play a meaningful and more significant role in net zero ambitions, it must be financeable without the need for Government intervention in the long term. A Rolls-Royce SMR power station will have the capacity to generate 470MW of low carbon energy, equivalent to more than 150 onshore wind turbines. It will provide consistent baseload generation for at least 60 years, helping to support the roll-out of renewable generation. | |||
