An overview is presented of a study undertaken for the NASA-LeRC on an advanced power system component testbed designed to be attached to the space station. The study was a continuation of NASA's efforts to identify and exploit the benefits of the space station to provide a platform for science and technology development. A candidate set of advanced technology experiments was devised in the photovoltaic, energy storage, solar dynamic and elastic propulsion disciplines. The testbed and the proposed experiments are described.
