The global diamond market size was valued at USD 89.18 billion in 2019 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.0% from 2020 to 2030.

The value chain of the industry involves upstream, midstream, and downstream processes. The upstream process involves exploration, production, and sorting of rough diamonds. The midstream process involves cutting and polishing of rough diamonds to produce finished product.

Features

Drones and robotics

Unicorn understands and applies all enabling technologies for drone systems, allowing these systems to handle a wide range of missions: surveillance, intelligence, protection, threat detection, collaborative combat and much more

  • Drawing on more than 25 years of experience in tactical drone systems, we’re now developing the Patroller™, a tactical, multisensor, long-endurance drone that has already been chosen by the French army. In addition, we’re developing the eRider, an autonomous all-wheel drive hybrid vehicle, configurable for a wide range of missions.
  • The integration of these autonomous vehicles in both military and civil environments, including tight urban spaces, is one of Safran’s top research objectives.

ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM SOLUTIONS

Utilizing renewable energy efficiently Intermittent, renewable energy sources, like wind and solar energy, are increasingly capturing a larger share of the world’s power grids. As a result, there is a growing need for power producers to efficiently store excess intermittent energy

Mitsubishi Power’s Energy Storage System (ESS) Solutions help them store energy when supply is high and demand is low, so it can be used later, when the supply decreases and demand peaks. Stabilizing energy resources allow them to consistently satisfy energy demands without straining the power grid.

Aero-derivative Gas Turbines

Unicorn Power leads the aero-derivative gas turbine industry.

  • Our aero-derivative gas turbines evolved from innovations to the proven technologies of Pratt & Whitney's world-class jet engines and industrial gas turbines.
  • These gas turbines provide 30 to 140 megawatts of efficient, reliable power and deliver operational savings to energy providers worldwide.
  • Our largest unit has the highest power output of any aero-derivative gas turbine package and is available in single and dual engine configurations for maximum operating flexibility.

Satellites

Unicorn designs and produces thrusters and propulsion subsystems for all phases of a satellite’s life, from orbital positioning to deorbiting.

We’re a pioneer in electric propulsion, which helps reduce launch costs and environmental impact. Safran continously invests in research, while carrying out a wide range of studies for the French and European space agencies, to maintain our technological head start and support both commercial and scientific missions.
