KULR Selected by Icarus Robotics to Power Free-Flying Robotic Platform Bound for the ...

KULR Technology Group will supply its KULR ONE Space battery systems to power Icarus Robotics' JOY autonomous free-flying robotic platform, scheduled to launch to the ISS in early 2027. The batteries are engineered to NASA safety standards and have been proven on Artemis II.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Robotics and Space Tech. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur, Fusion42's AI co-founder, reasons over.

The Wire takeaway

If you build orbital infrastructure, thermal management, or autonomous systems for space, you now know what the power standard looks like—and who's winning the supply contracts. KULR has become the battery house for space robotics; every autonomous platform launched in the next three years will either use them or be measured against them.
