The COSMO satellite environmental requirements and its very challenging mission objectives drive the design of the Electrical Power System (EPS), based on advanced Triple Junction (TJ) solar cells and a Li-Ion battery. The described COSMO-SkyMed system program is managed by the Italian Space Agency (ASI) and co-financed by ASI and the Italian Ministry of Defence.conference paperhttps://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-23844483636&partnerID=40&md5=a1624aeb5ef7d09922f892cab367b813
