According to a recent LinkedIn post from mPower Technology, the company is positioning itself as a response to what an Aerospace Industries Association and PwC report describes as an “inflection point” in the U.S. space supply chain. The post points to manual production processes and limited domestic scale as key issues highlighted in industry coverage on SpaceNews.

The company’s LinkedIn post highlights the launch of what it describes as the world’s first automated, high-volume space solar production line located in the U.S. The post suggests that this line, built around mPower’s DragonSCALES technology, is intended to address scalability constraints by shifting from labor-intensive methods to automated, megawatt-scale manufacturing.
According to the post, the technology is positioned as offering 3–5x lower costs than legacy gallium-arsenide solar solutions while maintaining a U.S.-based manufacturing footprint. For investors, if these cost and scale claims are borne out commercially, they could improve mPower Technology’s competitiveness in supplying power solutions for low Earth orbit constellations and lunar infrastructure.
The emphasis on domestic, resilient production may also align with U.S. national security and onshoring priorities in the broader space and defense supply chain. This positioning could enhance the company’s appeal for government and defense-related contracts, potentially supporting revenue visibility if it can convert technical capability into long-term customer agreements.
