Flexible silicon solar modules selected as power source for space cell tower
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - ColoradoDesk -- Innovative solar technology company, mPower Technology, today announced that its DragonSCALES™ solar power modules were selected by Lynk Global, Inc., (Lynk) the world's leading satellite-direct-to-phone telecoms company, to power the Lynk Global Tower 1 satellite, the first commercial-ready cell tower in space.
Launched in April of 2022, the Lynk Tower 1 is currently in orbit and is the sixth satellite in the constellation fleet.
DragonSCALES has been under evaluation by Lynk since its initial launch into low-Earth orbit last year. The space-proven technology has been collecting performance data and has demonstrated valuable results from the mission. As such, Lynk has selected mPower as a space power partner to deliver solar power solutions for its subsequent satellite deployments. DragonSCALES' benefits of lower mass, high packing factor, reliability, flexibility and competitive cost are ideally suited for constellation deployments such as the Lynk Tower 1.

"Lynk has been actively evaluating our technology and we have worked closely with their team to customize our space power solutions for their mission," said Kevin Hell, president and CEO of mPower Technology. "By leveraging existing manufacturing and fabrication processes, we have been able to meet Lynk's increasing demand and schedule for its imminent commercial service launch.
