Make it happen with MTC.
Your partner in nuclear success
Nuclear power sits at the core of energy security strategies, but its acceleration demands the kind of innovation MTC can deliver.
The UK’s path to net zero by 2050 will rely heavily on a new generation of nuclear power stations. Net zero offers the opportunity to deliver reduced carbon emissions and also enhances energy security, creates high-skilled jobs and will unlock substantial economic benefits such as an estimated £117bn from the Small Modular Reactor (SMR) programme alone.
Delays and cost overruns have typically plagued past nuclear projects, underscoring the need for innovation and efficiency to support this ambitious endeavour.
As the largest member of the High Value Manufacturing Catapult (HVMC) we are uniquely positioned to support the necessary change in the nuclear sector. We’ve already had significant success in many industries such as Aerospace, Defence and Construction and can see how direct applications could benefit the nuclear sector.
We specialise in embedding innovation and applying proven solutions to optimise processes such as modularisation which will substantially reduce costs and build times in SMR development for example. Our expertise in laser processing, non-destructive testing, and advanced manufacturing techniques like Hot Isostatic Pressing would make us a valuable partner for pioneering nuclear technologies, including Advanced Modular Reactors (AMRs) and Fusion - areas we’ve been working in for a number of years.

Scaling up SMRs & AMRs
Unlocking potential. Advancing industries.
Why can’t today’s nuclear construction techniques be transformed for tomorrow? With our expertise in commercialising the modular build concept, we’ve derisked construction. Partner with us to fast-track your project with confidence.
By utilising modular approaches, we reduce construction timelines and expense, deliver projects faster and ultimately minimise the risk associated with SMRs. Plus, our partnership with Rolls Royce SMR showcases our ability for efficient modularisation, supported by cutting-edge automation.
Fusion power
Scaling capacity. Driving impact.
Why should imagined risks hinder unimaginable progress? With materials processing through our expertise in modern and advanced methods of manufacture, we’ll help you fast-track your fusion project and upscale with confidence.
Our Component Manufacturing Technology team support the Fusion Futures Programme, specialising in crafting fusion components with precision and reliability. Whether it's joining dissimilar materials or mastering digital engineering, we ensure high quality fusion component manufacturing.
