The world is striving to settle and develop the Moon. However, no one can stay there for longer than a few days without affordable ways to obtain the critical energy needed to survive the extreme cold. Volta will solve this problem beaming energy from satellites in lunar orbit to energy receivers on the surface specifically designed to work on the Moon. The first of these receivers will be developed and tested by Volta in this project, with a breakthrough technology that can ensure stability, and performance for unprecedented mission opportunities. Furthermore, Volta will send a small-scale ve
This project matures the technology readiness level (TRL) of a wireless energy grid to ultimately support lunar missions in survival and operations in permanently shadowed regions. The project addresses key technical & programmatic research and development areas en route to a space demonstration, critical for supporting the early wave of lunar exploration in accordance with the Canadian Space Agency’s (CSA’s) Lunar Exploration Acceleration Program (LEAP) objectives.
Funding under the Innovator Stream will support continued research and development of solutions under National Defence’s Funding for Canadian Innovators and Accelerators of DIANA (FCIA-DIANA) program.
The project will support development of intellectual property capacity within the firm.
