Scientific paper

Space photovoltaic technology in Europe is currently dominated by silicon cells mounted on deployable rigid or flexible panels. Europe leads in the application of large flexible blanket arrays for high-power missions (e.g. Space Telescope, Olympus) and is further developing the technology for retractable arrays. In the future, the increasing demand for high-power, minimum-area solar arrays will stimulate new technology development paths both at cell level (gallium arsenide and advanced silicon cells) and array level (planar blanket and advanced sunlight concentrator arrays).
