APR Technologies recently signed a contract with the European Space Agency (ESA) and received a grant from Swedish National Space Agency (SNSA) for a total value of 6,5 million SEK. The purpose of the funding is to perform an in-orbit demonstration of the Thermal Switch that has been developed for the Airbus Eurostar Neo geostationary telecom satellite product family. 

APR Technologies is launching a new project that will directly impact the transition to a fossil-free transport system. This project demonstrates a modular long-life lithium ion battery system that increases performance and lifetime of the complete battery module. It is a pilot series for industrial production and will verify the productivity of the battery module. 

In parallel to its thermal switch product line for satellites, APR Technologies starts a new development based on its patented Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) technology. APR Technologies has been granted MSEK 1.1 from Swedish National Space Agency and will develop a pumped loop enabling efficient and reliable thermal control of various spacecraft including rovers to Mars and the Moon.
