Rolls-Royce Bags Third European SMR Deal While Adding Gas-Cooled Reactor Design

Rolls-Royce has secured its third major contract in Europe for its small modular reactors (SMR), with Sweden's Videberg Kraft opting for their design to power three units, marking Sweden's first new nuclear plant in over four decades. This deal, backed by the UK government's trade initiatives, highlights the growing international interest in nuclear energy as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. This success comes on top of previous agreements in the UK and Czechia, suggesting a robust future for Rolls-Royce's innovative gas-cooled reactor designs.
