Space-based solar power (SBSP or SSP) is the concept of collecting solar power in outer space with solar power satellites (SPS) and distributing it back down to Earth. Although it may seem like a futuristic concept, the prospect of space solar may be closer than you think.
It’s coming to a cosmos near you in 25 years! China is currently planning to build a gigantic solar power station in space. To get parts of the array out of our atmosphere, scientists are working on a reusable heavy lift rocket called the Long March-9. The solar array project is just one small part of China’s larger space mission.
As SBSP technology improves, many nations might compete to be the first in developing fully operational space solar power stations for the sake of securing energy independence and the economic advantages brought by an unlimited power source.
Space solar power station (SSPS) are important space infrastructure for humans to efficiently utilize solar energy and can effectively reduce the pollution of fossil fuels to the earth’s natural environment. As the energy conversion system of SSPS, solar array is an important unit for the successful service of SSPS.
