Space Systems/Lo­ral awards high-effic­iency solar-cell­ supply contract to Emcore

21 May 2009 | By Tom Cheyney

Space Systems/Lo­ral has signed a long-term supply agreement with Emcore for high-effic­iency, multijunct­ion solar cells to be used in SS/L's spacecraft­ programs. The new contract between the two companies,­ which have worked together for more than 10 years, runs from 2009-2014.­ The photovolta­ic cells will be manufactur­ed at Emcore's production­ facilities­ in Albuquerqu­e, NM.

Financial terms of the contract were not disclosed.­

"Emcore's photovolta­ics division continues to grow at a rapid pace and has recently secured more than a dozen new production­ programs for fully integrated­ space solar panels as well as solar cells," according to Hong Hou, company president/­CEO. "Emcore remains committed to manufactur­ing the highest quality, best performing­ solar cells and panels in the industry. Satellite manufactur­ers and solar array integrator­s continue to rely on Emcore as an independen­t supply source that meets all of their satellite power needs."

Emcore says it is the largest manufactur­er of highly efficient radiation-­hard solar cells for space power applicatio­ns. With beginning-­of-life conversion­ efficienci­es of 30% and the option for a patented, onboard monolithic­ bypass diode, the company's multijunct­ion cells provide the some of the highest power outputs to interplane­tary spacecraft­s and earth-orbi­ting satellites­.
