An Australian-led additive manufacturing project is poised to transform how long-duration space and defence missions are powered, addressing one of the most persistent challenges in extreme environments: reliable, maintenance-free energy.
The Additive Manufacturing Cooperative Research Centre (AMCRC) is supporting South Australian nuclear engineering company entX to transition its GenX Betavoltaic Power Generator prototype into pre-commercial production. Developed with Adelaide University, GenX is a next-generation nuclear battery that combines additive manufacturing with advanced surface engineering to deliver unprecedented power density in a compact form.
