Design assessment · Under review · ONR/EA (UK)
Generic Design Assessment of the Rolls-Royce SMR design by the UK regulators. ONR's page (read 3 October 2026) shows Step 1 from April 2022 to April 2023, Step 2 to July 2024 with published Step 2 statements, and Step 3 under way since July 2024. A GDA assesses the generic design only; it is not permission for any site, construction or operation, and no Step 3 conclusion is recorded here.
