Keir Starmer has announced that the UK’s first small modular nuclear reactors will be built in north Wales
– and immediately faced a backlash from the Trump administration which pushed for a US manufacturer to be chosen.
Wylfa on the island of Anglesey, or Ynys Môn, will be home to three small modular reactors (SMRs)
to be built by British manufacturer Rolls-Royce SMR.
The government said it will invest £2.5bn.
SMRs are a new – and untested – technology
aiming to produce nuclear power stations in factories to drive down costs and speed up installation.
Rolls-Royce plans to build reactors, each capable of generating 470 megawatts of power, mainly in Derby
