Redwire, a company operating in the space technology sector, has announced its new invention, the ELSA solar panels. This innovative device is specifically designed for mass-produced satellites and stands out for its compactness and high power. Reports ixbt.com.
The new ELSA panels are based on the ROSA technology, which has been successfully tested on the International Space Station. Experts note that these panels are capable of generating 50 percent more energy compared to previous models. Most importantly, the device takes up very little space when stowed, which provides great convenience during the launch process into space.
According to Redwire representatives, the demand for energy sources in space is currently increasing sharply. Such efficient solutions are especially necessary for satellite communication systems and orbital data centers. ELSA panels have a modular structure, and plans are in place for rapid serial production and delivery to customers.
The company expects to sign major contracts for the use of this new technology in the near future. This innovation is expected to be an important step in reducing the costs of implementing space projects and increasing their efficiency.
