Great British Nuclear (GBN) is looking to appoint two engineering firms to carry out £600m (€701m, $796m) worth of work on its small modular reactor (SMR) programme.
The government-owned nuclear energy body has put out a tender for two engineers to help with the deployment of SMR technology in the UK by the early 2030s.
The chosen firms will work with GBN, which was set up to oversee the deployment of new nuclear power plants in the UK, to help reach a final investment decision on up to two SMR projects.
