You perhaps dont see the export potential for these mini reactors?
The UK gave the world the industrial revolution, and the pollution, so this will be its answer to help clean up the planet.
There is enough surveillance on the planet now to track and predict virtually everyone's next move when coupled with US tech firms, so what would remote villages in the Amazon think if they can get online and connected with the rest of the world, or parts of Africa getting reliable electricity?
Electric cars's are still in the infancy, but battery tech is always improving and if the planet is to decarbonise then nuclear is the way to go.
We havent even started mining Helium13 from the moon (massive amount on the moon little on Earth), but that has virtually no radioactive waste.
Who wouldnt want decent electricity at Everest Base camp's?
The US Embassy in London is supposed to have its own mini nuclear reactor which uses the Thames for cooling and generates enough to power local residence in the event of a power outage. Its probably like what you find on a nuclear powered submarine, which is what I would imagine these Rolls Royce mini reactors will be like or could be like.
