January 18, 2026, 5:06 PM EST. Rolls-Royce is positioning its small modular reactors (SMRs) to meet surging electricity demand from AI data centers. The IEA expects global data-center power use to double by 2030, challenging grids in Europe and beyond. Rolls-Royce emphasizes factory-built SMRs, with most construction done off-site and final assembly on site. A single SMR can deliver up to 470 MW and endure up to 60 years, equivalent to about 150 onshore wind turbines. Partnerships already backing the roll-out include CEZ Group in the Czech Republic and Siemens, aiding turbine systems and global deployment. First-half 2025 results show Rolls-Royce revenue growth and improving margins, underscoring the potential of AI infrastructure spending as a driver of energy technology demand.
