Now technically and economically viable, space-based solar power (SBSP) could be a new abundant sustainable energy source. Able to provide consistent power renewables struggle to supply, its efficiency also means a drastic reduction in materials usage. Unlike terrestrial solar farms, SBSP proposes a revolutionary approach: capturing solar energy in. . OTPS provides analytic, strategic, and decisional support to NASA senior issues. We are the NASA Administrator's principal advisor on agencywide technology policy matters. * “Net zero means cutting greenhouse gas zero as possible, with any remaining emissions atmosphere. . SBSP involves harnessing solar energy in space for delivery to and use on Earth. End-to-end SBSP systems integrate on-orbit solar energy capture and conversion with wireless power transmission (WPT) to ground-mounted rectifying antennas (rectennas) that supply DC power for terrestrial use. The biggest obstacle to exploring SBSP remains. .
