Space Solar

Space Solar has developed a cutting-edge solar power system that will orbit Earth, harnessing solar energy and transmitting it wirelessly via safe high frequency radio waves to ground-based stations.

Space Solar Signs Agreement to Bring Energy to Iceland

The companies announced an agreement to deliver 30 MW of space-based solar power to Reykjavik Energy in Iceland by 2030. Space Solar has developed a solar power system that will orbit Earth, harnessing solar energy and transmitting it wirelessly via high frequency radio waves to ground-based stations.

Iceland Could Have Electricity Beamed Down From Space by 2030

Iceland might be the first place in the world to gather solar energy from space via a satellite that would then beam 30 megawatts of energy back down to Earth—enough to power anywhere from...

Iceland''s Vision for Space-Based Solar Energy: A Pioneering Step

Iceland, known for its dedication to renewable energy, is breaking new ground by exploring space-based solar power. In partnership with Space Solar, Reykjavik Energy, and Transition Labs, Iceland aims to build a solar power plant in orbit, projected to generate up to 30 megawatts of electricity — enough to power thousands of homes.

Will Space Solar Power Reykjavik Energy in 2030?

Space Solar has secured an agreement with Reykjavik Energy to provide electricity from a space-based solar plant in 2030. There is a letter of intent in place between the UK-based startup and the Icelandic utility, with Space Solar expecting to transmit solar energy from orbit within five years.

Could Iceland be the first country to harness solar power from space?

The project, a collaboration between Iceland’s sustainability initiative Transition Labs and UK-based Space Solar, is expected to power 1,500 to 3,000 homes. In a move that could revolutionize how the world harvests energy and reduce dependence on non-renewable sources, Iceland could become the first country to harness solar power from space.

Could space solar be a source of electricity in Iceland?

Sam Adlen, co-CEO and executive director at Space Solar, told pv magazine the startup has already started identifying potential sites in Iceland where receivers could be located for electricity beamed from space, working in partnership with Reykjavik Energy and local cleantech consultancy Transition Labs.

Is Reykjavik Energy a suitable partner for space solar?

“Reykjavik Energy’s focus on climate technology, along with its experience in carbon storage through Carbfix and partnership with Climeworks, makes it a suitable partner for the initial phase of Space Solar’s project,” said Kjartan Örn Ólafsson, CEO of Transition Labs.

Will Iceland get more power?

The proposal for Iceland will need to deliver billions of times more power. As the constellation of power stations expands, Iceland, Canada, and northern Japan have been identified as potential locations for additional receiving stations, with Space Solar aiming to scale up to gigawatt capacity by 2036.
