Iceland could get solar power from space in 2030 | Space
A British startup plans to supply solar power from space to Icelanders by 2030, in what could be the world''s first demonstration of the novel renewable energy source.
The pilot project will deliver 30 megawatts of clean energy to Iceland by 2030. Unlike ground-based solar power plants, which depend on sunlight and weather, Space Solar's technology provides stable power generation.
The space solar power project, announced on Monday (Oct. 21), is a partnership between U.K.-based Space Solar, Reykjavik Energy and Icelandic sustainability initiative Transition Labs. It intends to launch a demonstrator satellite by 2030, which will beam to Earth 30 megawatts of clean energy — enough to power about 3,000 homes.
By the mid-2040s, Space Solar's orbiting power plants could be delivering over 15 gigawatts of energy. Space Solar said the development and manufacturing of the pilot plant will cost $800 million.
By 2036, Solar Space plans to scale the system to six such space solar power plants, delivering gigawatts of clean electricity to users on Earth. By the mid-2040s, Space Solar's orbiting power plants could produce more than 15 gigawatts.
