Space Norway financed the installation of the first antenna dedicated to satellite communication at the Troll Station in Antarctica. This initiative significantly enhances the station’s communication capabilities, fostering better connectivity and data transmission in one of the most remote regions on Earth.
Norwegian Telecom became the largest Nordic operator of satellite-based transmission services for broadcasting purposes, with a primary focus on Norway. The satellite was renamed THOR 1. Norwegian Telecom became a major player in communications across Northwest Europe, and a leading global provider of mobile services for ships and aircraft.
The Norwegian Space Agency (NRS) was established in 1987 when Norway became a member of the European Space Agency (ESA). In 1991, Tromsø Telemetristasjon (TTS) and its activities were incorporated into the Norwegian Space Agency, further consolidating Norway’s capabilities and efforts in space research and satellite communication.
Space Norway projects satellite-based broadband in the Arctic, marking a significant milestone in the company’s history with the Arctic Satellite Broadband Mission (ASBM).
Space Norway acquired a transponder on Telenor Satellite Broadcasting’s THOR 7 satellite, establishing a communications link with the Troll Station in Antarctica. This acquisition enables KSAT (Kongsberg Satellite Services) to downlink data from satellites passing over the South Pole.
Space Norway commenced the construction of a test and demonstration satellite for radar-based maritime surveillance, MicroSAR, marking the culmination of several years of preparation. The launch is scheduled for 2025. The MicroSAR project aims to deliver high-resolution radar imagery for maritime surveillance and various other applications.
The global solar storage container market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 200% in the past two years. Pre-fabricated containerized solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new utility-scale storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 40% market share, driven by streamlined permitting processes and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 15-25%. Europe follows closely with 32% market share, where standardized container designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with China's manufacturing scale reducing container prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting mobile container solutions for rapid electrification, with typical payback periods of 3-5 years. Major projects now deploy clusters of 20+ containers creating storage farms with 100+MWh capacity at costs below $280/kWh.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar storage container performance while reducing costs. Next-generation thermal management systems maintain optimal operating temperatures with 40% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $80/kWh to $45/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple containers to operate as coordinated virtual power plants, increasing revenue potential by 25% through peak shaving and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and gas detection systems have reduced insurance premiums by 30% for container-based projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple container additions at just $210/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial projects typically achieving payback in 4-7 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show 20ft containers (1-2MWh) starting at $350,000 and 40ft containers (3-6MWh) from $650,000, with volume discounts available for large orders.
