The multi-purpose, manned, permanent Space Station will be our next step toward utilization of space. A multi-kilowatt electrical power system will be critical to its success. The power systems for the Space Station manned core and platforms that have been selected in definition studies are described in this paper. The selected system for the platforms uses silicon arrays and NiH2 batteries. The power system for the manned core is a hybrid employing arrays and batteries identical to those on the platform along with solar dynamic modules using either Brayton or organic Rankine engines. The power system requirements, candidate technologies, and configurations that were considered, and the basis for selection, are discussed.
