My organisation
ParaLoon, a pioneering space start-up whose name is derived from “parabolic balloon” , is dedicated to developing innovative inflatable/unfoldable, parabolic concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) systems. These systems are designed to harness solar energy by efficiently converting light and heat, both on Earth and in space. Over the past year, ParaLoon has made substantial progress thanks to the support of the European Space Agency (ESA) Business Incubation Centre (BIC) program.
