OverviewAdvantages and disadvantagesHistoryDesignLaunch costsBuilding from spaceSafetyTimeline
The SBSP concept is attractive because space has several major advantages over the Earth''s surface for the collection of solar power: • It is always solar noon in space and full sun.• Collecting surfaces could receive much more intense sunlight, owing to the lack of obstructions such as atmospheric gasses, clouds, dust and other weather events. Consequently, the intensity in orbit is approximately 144% of the maximum atta…
