Aetherflux, a startup founded by a physicist with a background in financial services, announced it was developing a novel ...

The demonstrator is a key component of the CASSIOPeiA space-based solar power plant concept that is being developed by Space Solar. The company envisions that CASSIOPeiA could be in space within a ...

The solar array isn’t the only plan China has for space research—it also plans to reach the Moon and build an International ...

Chinese scientists say that solar panels in space could collect energy in one year equivalent to all of the oil on Earth ...

Space-based solar power systems (or SBSPs) are different in that they collect energy in Earth orbit. There is no atmosphere or clouds, making this method much more efficient than on the ground.

Now, though, the nation is setting its sights on something beyond our atmosphere, with reports that it wants to create a space-based solar power station. While this might sound like an out-of-this ...

Ellingson told pv magazine. “However, PV modules for space-based solar power (SBSP) must enable very low launch weights in order to accommodate the goal of kilometer-squared array areas ...

Consequently, “it is estimated that space-based harvesters could potentially yield eight times more power than solar panels at any location on the surface of the globe.” Tapping into such a ...

The same dirt that clings to astronauts' boots may one day keep their lights on. In a study published in Device, researchers ...

They have sent into space a 12-inch square tile photovoltaic module that is expected to test the viability of space-based solar power systems converting sunlight to microwaves outside the atmosphere.
