    SmartIR awarded 2.5M€ EIC Transition project

    SmartSat project launches to revolutionize spacecraft thermal control with dynamic graphene radiators.

    We are thrilled to announce the launch of our ground-breaking two-year project: Revolutionizing Spacecraft Thermal Control with Dynamic Graphene Radiators: SmartSat. This innovative initiative is a significant leap forward in the aerospace industry, and we're proud to lead this new venture starting today!

    Project Overview:

    SmartSat is set to transform how we manage thermal control in spacecraft. By leveraging the exceptional properties of graphene, our dynamic radiators promise to enhance efficiency and reliability in extreme space environments. This technology will not only support current space missions but also pave the way for future explorations.

    EIC Transition Project:

    SmartSat is a 2.5M€ EIC Transition project, marking a pivotal moment in our journey towards advanced space technologies. This status reflects our commitment to pioneering research and development in the aerospace sector.

    Funded by InnovateUK:

    We're honoured to have the support of InnovateUK, the UK's innovation agency. Their funding is instrumental in bringing SmartSat from concept to reality, ensuring the UK stays at the forefront of aerospace innovation.
