I have taken my summer holidays just a few miles from Hunterston A & B every year for the past couple of decades. They’re in the background of most beach photos we have of our kids. So … yes.

The point of Rolls Royce’s SMRs is that they *don’t* take decades to bring on stream. You don’t have to design a massive bespoke site for each one because they are small enough to be contained on a modest sized piece of land. The idea is you build more of them, in more places.
