About this award
This $79,226.08 grant was awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) on August 28, 2020. The purpose is to conduct research on modern space solar power systems that utilize multi-junction cells, which can suffer efficiency losses in extreme radiation, low irradiance, and low temperature (LILT) environments. Penn State will perform this research work, which has an ultimate completion date of August 12, 2022. The award was not set aside for any particular business type. In addition to this grant, Penn State holds various other federal prime contracts, subcontracts, and grants across areas like defense, space, agriculture, health, and education, leveraging the university's expertise in fields such as materials science and engineering.
