How space based solar power can save earth

In addition to that, the Earth’s atmosphere, it shields the planet from too much of the sun’s energy.

Now, imagine, if you could put a solar panel into the Earth’s orbit at around 22,000 miles up.

See, the concept of space-based solar power was theorized 40 years back by a very renowned scientist named Peter Glaser.

After his discovery and in response to the periodical energy crises, the idea has since been adopted by the U.S. Department of Energy, NASA, and some of the major aerospace companies and countries like Japan and India.

Many studies have shown that there is no technological barrier to start implementing space-based solar power.

The significant impediment has been identified as being economics because it might be a challenge to provide SBSP at a competitive price.
