A leading British engineering firm, Rolls-Royce, is considering several long-term options in India, among which include building a civil aviation engine maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) shop, setting up of aero gas turbines manufacturing plant, as well as engaging in the nation's nascent SMR market. These strategies are indicative of the company's intention to extend its reach in the aerospace, defense and energy industries in the country. As per Sashi Mukundan, Rolls-Royce's Executive Vice President, Transformation India, there has been a high demand for engine MRO due to expansion of India's airline sector. Given that both Air India and IndiGo have committed orders for Airbus A350 jets that run Rolls-Royce engines, the need to set up an MRO facility becomes apparent. Currently, engines from India undergo servicing in Singapore and Hong Kong. Discussion on MRO and engine development: According to Rolls-Royce, the establishment of an MRO facility for its engines in India is a question of when and not whether it will take place as they expect increasing volumes of the engines in the country in the coming years. There are currently about 100 civil aviation engines deployed in India by Rolls-Royce, both for commercial airliners and business jets. In addition to the MRO facility plans, there are also proposals by Rolls-Royce for building an aero gas turbine facility in India that would include technology transfer assistance provided by the UK government. The proposed facility would begin manufacturing engines for military applications with subsequent expansion for dual and civil aviation purposes as well. Examining the possibilities within nuclear energy: Moreover, Rolls-Royce has started examining possibilities in the field of nuclear energy in India due to some new policy changes in the country. It has been confirmed by Rolls-Royce that the company is exploring opportunities relating to the deployment of small modular reactors, which have gained popularity around the world as alternate sources of energy. Rolls-Royce has a notable presence in India in the fields of aerospace, defense, and power systems, having collaborations with many entities such as Hindustan Aeronautics Limited and Force Motors. Moreover, it has also recently added to its capabilities for producing jet engines by adding a joint venture facility in Hosur in the state of Tamil Nadu. If opportunities arise in all three areas as expected, Rolls-Royce foresees that billions of dollars could be invested, resulting in more than 10,000 jobs being created. Gallery.
Rolls-Royce picks suppliers for SMR programme. 29/05/2026 Rolls-Royce has appointed Škoda JS and Doosan Enerbility to produce key nuclear island components for its Small Modular Reactor programme.
Rolls-Royce Holdings has raised €1 billion through its first euro bond offering since 2020, attracting more than €8.1 billion in orders. The dual-tranche issue comprises €500 million of notes at 3.375% maturing in May 2031 and €500 million at 3.875% due May 2036. The strong oversubscription reflects bond market confidence in the British engine maker's improving credit profile following an operational turnaround led by Chief Executive Tufan Erginbilgic. Moody's upgraded Rolls-Royce's credit rating to A3 earlier this year, whilst Fitch raised it to A-minus, both with stable outlooks. The bond market's enthusiasm contrasts with more cautious equity investor sentiment towards the company.
Rolls-Royce welcomes landmark contract with UK Government for delivery of Small Modular Reactors | Rolls-Royce. Monday 13 April 2026 06:10 AM Rolls-Royce welcomes landmark contract with UK Government for delivery of Small Modular Reactors Rolls-Royce (LSE: RR., ADR: RYCEY) today welcomes the announcement that Rolls-Royce SMR has signed a landmark contract with Great British Energy - Nuclear (GBE-N) that paves the way for the design and delivery of the first small modular reactors (SMRs) in the UK. This marks another important step on the journey of Rolls-Royce SMR towards creating high-skilled jobs, improving the UK's energy security, boosting the supply chain and generating economic growth for the nation. In November last year, the UK Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer, announced that three SMRs will be sited at Wylfa, on the coast of Ynys Môn (Anglesey) in North Wales. That followed the news in July that Czech utility CEZ Group had signed an early works agreement enabling the launch of site work in Czechia for Rolls-Royce SMR to provide up to 3GW of low-carbon energy. Today's two-stage contract with GBE-N will enable site-specific design activity and preparations for the site build at Wylfa, as well as allowing Rolls-Royce SMR to order long lead-time equipment from the supply chain. The contract brings certainty to the UK SMR programme and differentiates Rolls-Royce SMR as the only company with multiple commitments in Europe. Tufan erginbilgic, CEO, Rolls-Royce, said: This is a critical milestone for Rolls-Royce SMR, for Rolls-Royce and for the UK as the Government looks to realise its ambition of a 'golden age' of new nuclear. It is a vote of confidence in our unique nuclear capabilities and further evidence that the strategic choices we have made in the transformation of Rolls-Royce are delivering. It also provides crucial contractual certainty in our domestic market that will unlock the opportunity to deploy a global fleet of Rolls-Royce SMRs. "Rolls-Royce SMR now has multiple commitments in Europe and is well placed to become a market leader globally. As activity ramps up in the UK and in the Czech Republic, these projects are already generating returns." "The team in Rolls-Royce SMR have an unrivalled track record in nuclear design, regulatory engagement, manufacturing and assembly and I would like to thank them for their hard work and dedication in getting to this important stage." This contract with GBE-N will help Rolls-Royce SMR retain its crucial first mover advantage in a market that is growing and attracting significant international interest. The business is currently the furthest through any European regulatory process. About Rolls-Royce Holdings plc News and stories.

Rolls-Royce has secured up to £599 million from the UK's national wealth fund to develop the country's first small modular reactors (SMRs) at Wylfa on Anglesey. The funding is expected to create approximately 1,000 jobs. The investment supports Rolls-Royce's SMR technology, which aims to produce nuclear power stations in factories to reduce costs and accelerate installation. The company signed a contract with state-owned Great British Energy – Nuclear to begin work immediately on the reactors. Rolls-Royce SMR, majority-owned by the FTSE 100 engineering firm alongside Qatar's sovereign wealth fund and other investors, employs over 1,000 people developing technology that will also be deployed in the Czech Republic. Chancellor Rachel Reeves said the investment would strengthen energy security and create skilled jobs whilst building homegrown nuclear technology.
