Rolls-Royce said the sale comprises civil nuclear services businesses in the US and Canada along with sites at Mondragon, France, and Gateshead, UK, which are part of its power systems business unit.
The sale does not include the instrumentation and controls business based in Grenoble, France, which remains under review.
It also does not include Rolls-Royce’s UK nuclear new build operations or small modular reactor activities.
The company is heading an SMR consortium which plans to install and operate “factory-built power stations” capable of competing on price with low-cost renewables such as offshore wind.

Representatives of Ukrainian nuclear operator Energoatom and US-based Westinghouse Electric Company met today to discuss the possible introduction of Westinghouse-made fuel into Units-1 and -2 of the Rovno nuclear power station in western Ukraine.
Energoatom said the purpose of the meeting was for the Ukrainian team to study foreign experience with the operation of VVER-440 type reactors running on Westinghouse fuel.
The US company used to supply VVER-440 fuel for Finland’s two-unit Loviisa nuclear power station, but in 2009 ceased production of this particular fuel type. In 2014, Westinghouse began examining the option of restarting its VVER-440 fuel production capabilities.
Earlier this year, Westinghouse said it was interested in supplying fuel for Ukraine’s Rovno nuclear station.
