Small Modular Reactors policy
07 December 2017
We support the Government’s decision to reassess the direction of its Small Modular Reactors (SMR) policy. We also look forward to working within the new framework to deliver U-Battery, a micro modular reactor, which is a low-carbon solution to address unique energy and decarbonisation challenges.
About U-Battery
U-Battery is an advanced/small modular reactor, capable of providing a low-carbon, cost-effective, locally embedded and reliable source of power and heat for energy intensive industry and remote locations. It is being developed by Urenco in collaboration with a number of supporting organisations and has received funding from the UK Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy's Energy Innovation Portfolio.
