Space Based Power Stations

Space Based Solar Power

Space-based solar power is the concept of collecting solar power in space for use on earth by using a solar powered satellite. This method results in several benefits such as a higher collection rate and a longer collection period because of a lack of atmoshere and night time in space. At the center of this technology are silicon wafers, which are used to convert sunlight to energy.

Earth Based Solar Station

Earth-Based Solar Power

Earth-based solar power is the current form of solar power technology, which utilizes solar panels placed on the ground to generate energy. This method is not as efficient as the space based method due to environmental barriers such as the atmosphere, which absorbs and reflects sunlight. At the center of this technology are silicon wafers, which are used to convert sunlight to energy.
