The 5th Successful Launch of Geely Constellation Brings Total to 52 Satellites

2025 September 9^th, Hangzhou, China - The 5th orbital plane of GEESATCOM, known as Geely Future Mobility Constellation, was successfully launched from Rizhao, China, with 11 satellites deployed in a single launch. All satellites entered their designated orbit and are operating nominally, marking another milestone success for the constellation's deployment.

GEESATCOM focuses on satellite IoT experiments and inter-satellite communication trials across a wide range of application scenarios, including intelligent connected vehicles, marine fisheries, construction machinery, low-altitude mobility, emergency response, transportation and logistics, public infrastructure, energy, water conservancy, agriculture, forestry, and livestock, while also supporting Earth observation in environmental monitoring.

Prior to this launch, Geespace, the commercial aerospace company under Geely Holding Group had deployed 41 satellites at 600 km orbit. With the successful deployment of the 5th orbital plane, and including in-orbit test satellites, the constellation now totals 52 satellites. The constellation is on track to complete its first-phase network of 64 satellites this year, which will enable seamless, real-time global data connectivity across the world, excluding the polar regions.

Leveraging a global strategy and open collaboration with partners across more than 20 countries, Geespace is accelerating the commercial rollout of GEESATCOM worldwide.

In the Middle East and Africa, Geespace has partnered with Azyan Telecom in Oman, ATSS in Saudi Arabia, and Soremar in Morocco, with services covering smart cities, intelligent transportation, energy, and marine fisheries to support regional digital economy growth. In Oman, constellation commercial deployment testing achieved a 99.15% communication success rate and over 99.97% network availability, demonstrating full commercial capability.

In Southeast Asia, Geespace has established a joint venture, ADISB, with Malaysia's ALTEL to advance localized applications of GEESATCOM. The project has received recognition from Malaysia's government and will pioneer applications in maritime, agriculture, transportation, and energy across the region.

In South America, Geespace has partnered with Argentina's Orbith to jointly promote GEESATCOM's market expansion in the region, while also exploring integrated applications of LEO and GEO satellites. This cooperation aims to enhance digital infrastructure in Argentina and South America, providing more inclusive and extensive connectivity services to local and regional markets.

As constellation deployment enters its final sprint, Geespace will continue to work closely with global ecosystem partners to accelerate the large-scale commercialization of low-Earth orbit satellite IoT, providing solid support for global smart mobility, industrial upgrading, and digital economy development.
