Rolls extends nuclear deal with French
The agreement includes manufacturing of complex components for nuclear power stations and will lead to the development of a joint plan to meet the demand for the first new nuclear reactors to be built in the UK since the completion of Sizewell B in 1995.
In a separate development, Areva has signed a new collaborative agreement with the Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) in Rotherham to identify and support UK manufacturing companies which can supply Areva’s projects in the UK and overseas.
