The solar cell array is body-mounted, with solar panels installed on six sides and on top of the array. Philip R. Wolfe, in McEvoy's Handbook of Photovoltaics (Third Edition), 2018 Operationally the solar cell array is there to fulfill a defined electrical function.
The Transformational Solar Array uses Deployable Space System’s (DSS) Roll Out Solar Array (ROSA) as a structure and equips the array with very high efficiency SolAero Inverted Metamorphic (IMM) solar cells and reflective concentrators. Figure 1 is a photograph of a ROSA array without concentrators.
Any cell with such a defect is excluded from flight hardware, so there is no technical risk to the performance of the final flight solar array. SolAero is already addressing this issue in other programs. This work will benefit the Transformational Array.
Likelihood and Consequence to Safety: 1, 3. The likelihood of this risk is based on the author’s informal estimation of the safety record of exposing solar arrays to the listed environments. The consequence is based on the possibility of such as receiving an electric shock in the test of the articles. Likelihood and Consequence to Cost: 1, 5.

Over the course of 2023 the world’s solar cells, their panels currently covering less than 10,000 square kilometres, produced about 1,600 terawatt-hours of energy (a terawatt, or 1 tw, is a trillion watts). That represented about 6% of the electricity generated world wide, and just over 1% of the world’s primary-energy use.
