Original Entry: Space News will hold a webinar on August 14, 2025 from 1:00-2:00 pm ET to discuss “Space Based Solar Power.”
More information and registration instructions are on the event’s website, which says:
As global energy demands grow space-based solar power (SBSP) may offer a compelling long-term solution. A comprehensive international assessment completed under the International Academy of Astronautics concluded that solar power satellites (SPS) could deliver continuous, large-scale electricity from orbit to Earth — unaffected by weather or time of day.
Traditional renewables and existing infrastructure alone may not be sufficient to meet the worlds energy future needs. SBSP represents a high-potential alternative: by capturing solar energy in space and transmitting it wirelessly to Earth, it can deliver uninterrupted power on a global scale.
Join us on August 14th as we explore the technical, economic and policy landscape of space-based solar power. Learn how this decades-old concept may soon become a key component of the global energy portfolio — and what steps are needed to get there.
