This is NASA commissioned John - Mankins Dr
designed to use
flexible solar panels
in space transmit energy to the Earth, which
floats in space satellites called "Alpha Solar Power Satellite
(SPS-ALPHA)".
Mankins pointed out that, according to the
funding situation, Alpha solar power satellite launch as early as 2025, a solar
power satellite will be able to meet the energy needs of one-third of humanity.
With this technology the energy transferred to the ground, the ground stations
capture, and then diverted to the user.
According to Mankins was envisaged that the
system consists of thousands of thin curved mirror-like components, can move
freely in space, ensuring the ability to capture as much energy. Meanwhile,
power generation photovoltaic panels inlaid inside the satellite, solar energy
can be converted into microwaves. After the microwave from the bottom release
cocktail cup satellite transmission to the ground stations, which it is
received into the microwave power, and then transmitted to the consumer.
Dr. Mankins This space power system cost is
very low, only in the installation of
polycrystalline solar panels
on satellites orbiting the
earth only. At NASA's official website, he noted that the project was very
innovative, ways to achieve through the bionic space solar collection. If
successful, we will try to build a large power generation platform, through
wireless energy transmission, provide electricity in remote areas of the Earth.
The amount of available space solar power
on Earth billions of times the energy of the sun to long been deemed to meet
the growing energy needs of a solution. 2012, Strathclyde University
researchers tested a device in space, and for collecting energy in the form of
microwave or laser beam back to Earth. This test is Mankins NASA leadership
institute an advanced concept study component.
Researchers' ultimate goal is to create a
constellation of satellites, able someday to the city supply. Initially, this
micro-satellites can not replace the grid. Their advantage is that it can
quickly provide disaster or power supply in remote areas difficult to reach.
Strathclyde University in Muscat Migliano - Dr. Wasi Le said: "Space is a
collection of solar energy is an ideal place, has a huge advantage in space,
you can at any time of the day to collect solar energy while not weather
conditions will be constrained. "
