FRANKFURT, Feb 28 (Reuters) - Siemens Energy on Friday

said it has entered a partnership that is expected to make the

German group the exclusive supplier of conventional technology

for future small modular nuclear reactors (SMR) to be built by

Rolls-Royce SMR.

Under the agreement, to be finalised by end-2025, Siemens

Energy would supply steam turbines, generators and

"other auxiliary systems" for Rolls-Royce SMR's planned

Generation 3+ modular nuclear power plants, it said.

So-called SMRs are being developed by global nuclear energy

suppliers to produce power plant technology that is easily

replicable, faster and cheaper to deploy than traditional

large-scale plants.

"We are currently experiencing a global renaissance of

nuclear energy," Siemens Energy board member Karim Amin said.

"Numerous countries are turning to nuclear technology to

produce low-emission electricity, and small modular reactors

will play a key role in this."

Rolls-Royce SMR -- which is majority owned by Rolls-Royce

while Qatar, Constellation Energy ( CEG ) and investor BNF

Resources hold minority stakes -- is one of the companies

shortlisted by Britain to develop SMRs.

Czech electricity producer CEZ in October said it

would take a minority stake in Rolls-Royce SMR, whose reactors

can achieve output of up to 470 megawatts, enough to power

around 1.1 million households.
