Next Rolls-Royce SMR Supplier Conference Announced

/ 16 January 2025 / 0 Comments

Applications and registrations are now open for the next Rolls-Royce SMR Supplier Conference, which will be held on 13 March in Derby.

This event, the latest in a series of conferences and ‘meet the buyer’ sessions, will help create a diverse and resilient supply chain that will be essential in deploying a global fleet of Rolls-Royce SMR’s factory-built nuclear power plants.

Ruth Todd, Rolls-Royce SMR’s Operations and Supply Chain Director, said: “Our Supply Chain Programme was launched at the first Supplier Conference in Sheffield last year, where we were joined by hundreds of representatives from every level of the global supply chain.

“The next conference, one of several planned for 2025, will be another important step on our journey as we continue to grow and mature as a project delivery organisation - in the UK and around the world.”

Building a world class supply chain, with a strong SME element, is critical to Rolls-Royce SMR’s success and to delivering social value in the communities where it operates.

The Rolls-Royce SMR offers a radically different approach to delivering new nuclear power. Each ‘factory-built’ nuclear power station will provide enough low-carbon electricity to power a million homes for more than 60 years and will create thousands of long-term, high-skilled jobs.
