PMB Defence Engineering awarded major UK nuclear submarine contract. PMB Defence Engineering (PMB) has signed a contract with the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) valued at over £13 million (A$25 million) to test and qualify their cutting-edge battery system for the UK’s nuclear submarines. This contract marks a continuation of PMB's successful partnership with the UK Ministry of Defence, following an initial contract awarded in May 2019. This advanced technology, incorporating PMB’s Nickel Zinc battery design, has been developed and tested in collaboration with the UK MoD to suit the unique needs of nuclear submarine operations. Over the next 20 months, the upcoming phase will finalise the design and culminate in a qualified battery module and land-based trials to verify the battery system’s operational performance. "We are extremely pleased to continue this innovative work for the United Kingdom Ministry of Defence for their nuclear submarines," Mike Hartas, General Manager of New Technologies at PMB Defence, stated. "Our team in Australia and the United Kingdom has worked tirelessly since 2019 to get to this stage, and to finally see our technology mature to this state positions us well to support future AUKUS contracts in Australia and the US." Since its establishment in 1988 as Pacific Marine Batteries, PMB Defence Pty Ltd has been a key supplier to the Royal Australian Navy’s Collins Class Submarines, providing Main Storage Batteries and associated services. In recent years, PMB has expanded its expertise to design and supply advanced technology submarine batteries for many international customers, reinforcing its reputation as a leading provider of innovative and reliable solutions in the defence sector.
