WHAT IS SPACE SOLAR POWER ?

Space solar power (SSP) refers to the


concept of collecting solar power in space
and transmitting it wirelessly to Earth for
use as a source of renewable energy.
HOW DOES IT WORK ?

Solar panels located in space can capture sunlight


that is unobstructed by clouds, atmospheric
interference, and nighttime darkness.
The solar power collected in space is then
transmitted to Earth using microwave or
laser technology.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF SPACE SOLAR
POWER ?

SSP has the potential to provide a


continuous, high-capacity, and low-cost
source of clean energy. It can also
reduce dependence on fossil fuels and
significantly lower greenhouse gas
emissions.
WHAT ARE THE CHALLENGES OF SPACE
SOLAR POWER ?

SSP requires significant upfront investment and technological


advancements in space-based solar panels and wireless power
transmission. Additionally, there are concerns regarding the
safety and environmental impacts of microwave or laser power
transmission.
CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS

Several countries and companies are investing in research


and development of SSP. The Japan Aerospace Exploration
Agency (JAXA) has already launched a satellite to test
wireless power transmission from space to Earth.
Other organizations, such as the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration (NASA) and the European
Space Agency (ESA), are also actively exploring SSP.
