Clyde Space

NanoSat Power

Our NanoSat power system has been designed to meet the needs of low cost, low power missions.

The architecture is configured such that it can meet a variety of solar panel configurations and is compatible with most rechargeable battery systems, including lithium ion/polymer. A maximum power point tracking scheme is employed to maximise precious array power and the system has the ability to combine solar arrays of differing technologies and string lengths.

Track record: SNAP-1* and FalconSat-2*
