Wall#E: Fibre-Reinforced Spacecraft Walls for Storing Energy
![WALL#E Wall#E Image](https://innospace-masters.de/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/WALLE_Feeling_the_heat-qbo4ho5hhuk7lqfcrpx69swy00igc3tudau54lcin6.jpg)
The idea behind Wall#E involves integrating energy storage functions into the support structures of spacecraft, which will significantly reduce the mass and volume of satellites without sacrificing performance. To this end, Wall#E utilises fibre-reinforced structures (which enjoy more and more popularity in aerospace engineering) infiltrated with innovative solid-state battery materials. While this project’s initial focus is on satellites, the underlying concept can easily be adapted to launch systems, space stations, and ground-based e-mobility applications.
Benefits:
- Reduced satellite mass
- Simpler, more compact constructions
- Lower costs of development/launch
