The ALFAMA project focuses on developing innovative flexible solar arrays to meet the growing power demands of space missions. By enhancing power-to-mass ratios and integrating advanced photovoltaic technologies, it aims to improve the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of solar energy systems in spacecraft.
More and more missions require power supply > 25 kW such as solar electrical propulsion, high throughput satellites.
However, the restricted volume between the fairing and the spacecraft sidewall limits the number & the dimension of rigid solar panels during launch.
Therefore, the answer for this growing power demand lies neither in stacking more rigid solar arrays, nor by marginal efficiency improvements on III-V multi-junction solar cells, but rather in innovative/disruptive photovoltaic solut…
