UK-based startup <\/strong>Space Solar<\/a><\/strong> has successfully tested its beaming technology <\/strong>demonstrator taking one step closer to harnessing solar energy from space<\/strong>, according to a statement<\/a>. The Harrier demonstrator is the world\u2019s first 360\u00b0 wireless power transmission system which serves as a core component of Space Solar\u2019s satellite, enabling the transmission of power in all directions without the need for moving parts.<\/p>\n

How it'll work: <\/strong>Space Solar wants to deploy satellites in Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) outfitted with lightweight solar panels and mirrors to capture and convert sunlight into electricity, the statement notes. The converted electricity will then be beamed to a ground station via Harrier to provide continuous clean energy throughout the year, unhampered by weather conditions on the ground.<\/p>\n

Not the first to reach for the stars: <\/strong>Scientists from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) confirmed last July that a prototype solar power satellite can collect the sun's energy<\/a> and transmit it to Earth after six months of launching the Space Solar Power Demonstrator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
