European EEE-Component landscape analysis
Description

Electrical, Electronic and Electro-mechanical (EEE) components play an essential role in the functional performance, quality, life cycle and costs of space systems. EEE components are fundamental building blocks of any spacecraft and major drivers in determining their performances. Guaranteeing access to EEE components able to provide the necessary performances to comply with the requirements of future satellite missions is of paramount importance to maintain a successful and autonomous satellite manufacturing capabilities. The scope of the study was to carry out an analysis of the EEE component market demand and supply landscape, to support the development of a strategy for a sustainable EEE component sovereignty for space components in Europe.
