Sustain Space

Sustain Space works with governments, commercial companies and innovators to drive practical solutions for long-term space sustainability, from policy to mission design. The team offers expertise in future scanning, technology roadmapping, regulatory and policy guidance, systems engineering, strategy and business development.

The company's flagship initiative is the Debris Offset Market, a pioneering, market-driven approach to space debris that aims to make removal services financially viable by enabling satellite operators to offset their environmental impact in orbit and invest in a cleaner space environment. Sustain Space delivered a foundational report on this market concept to the 9th European Conference on Space Debris.

Beyond the Debris Offset Market, Sustain Space has completed commissioned studies for the UK Space Agency (UKSA), including a Space Resource Horizon Scanning study assessing the regulatory landscape needed for viable space resource utilisation, and a Cislunar Post-Mission Disposal Study examining the implications of different satellite disposal methods in cislunar space.

The company is led by Matthew Wills (CEO), Daniel Beechey (COO) and Steve Wills (CFO), and also publishes the 'Space Circularity' blog series exploring what a circular economy for space could look like in practice.
