Energy America USA, a leading solar module manufacturer and power plant contractor, has announced plans to establish a power station for extra-terrestrial applications such as mining operations on distant asteroids. The company claims it will utilise radioisotope power systems and a solar farm to generate the energy needed for mining or scientific work to happen, helping to pave the way for humans to work in space.
The company says it recognises the potential of asteroid mining as a viable and eco-friendly option and aims to provide the necessary energy infrastructure to support this emerging industry. Their objective is to build a power station that will employ a combination of radioisotope power systems and solar panels to generate electricity.
Radioisotope power systems, which utilise the natural decay of radioactive materials to produce heat and electricity, are particularly well-suited for space applications due to their reliability and long lifespan. Solar panels can also harness the abundant solar energy available in space to supplement the power generated by radioisotope systems. Click the link to read more:
