We have rolls royce small modular reactors (SMRs) driving a similar functionality in the UK
For context, at the moment they hope to have them operating some time in the 2030s. That’s a best case, just like the cost estimates (which operating practically and safely may be more than what people are forecasting)

Not operating today like it sounds from the comment.
