Their white paper touches on the issue, which seems slightly hand-wavy without much detail on quantification. They could potentially take advantage of heat gradients from deep space and dissipate heat to explore the Seeback effect.

Deep space? So they want to be outside geostationary orbit?

In LEO, pointing at deep-space just means away from Sun/Earth. You don't have to be in deep-space to use it for radiating heat away.
