rePowerSiC is leading a new era in space power technology. With our innovative high-power laser beaming system based on Silicon Carbide (SiC), we are transforming how energy is delivered across space.
rePowerSiC offers a highly efficient, compact, and eco-friendly solution for wireless power transfer. Our technology significantly reduces the size and weight of power receiver devices, optimizing spacecraft payload capacity.
With the ability to transmit power over extremely long distances, rePowerSiC enhances spacecraft capabilities, enabling operations in deep space and environments with limited sunlight, such as lunar nights and shadowed craters.
rePowerSiC employs cutting-edge Laser Power Transmission (LPT) technology to beam energy across space using a highly efficient Silicon Carbide-based power converter. This approach allows for the transmission of energy densities up to kW/cm2, while keeping the receiver size compact. The SiC-based system is designed to withstand the harsh conditions of space, providing a reliable power source for a wide range of space missions.
rePowerSiC is part of the Pathfinder Challenge, aiming to create a breakthrough in efficient wireless power transmission for space. Our team is composed of experts in laser technology, material science, modelling and fabrication of photovoltaic devices, and space engineering, working together to pave the way for a new era of space exploration.
