Power generated by solar panels on China s space station

Space-Based Solar vs. Conventional Solar

The solar panels found in many satellites in space also include a folding structure that allows the panels to expand while the spacecraft is in orbit. This format is also used in the International Space Station. Lastly, the solar panels in space do not need to convert DC electricity into AC.
