INTRODUCTION-Satellite solar-power system (SSPS), was first described in November 1968.[3]In 1973 Peter Glaser was granted U.S. patent number 3,781,647 for his method of transmitting power over long distances (from an SPS to Earth's surface) using microwaves from a very large antenna .

Solar Power refers to energy from the sun that humans have harnessed in order to power things on earth.Space Based Solar refers to efforts to use satellites to harness this directly from space instead of on the ground.

Why Space Solar? Terrestrial Solar Power (ground-based solar power) is not always sufficient to meet the growing energy needs of planet earth.

Space Solar can be used whether or not people on earth can see the sun (even in rainy weather or at night!) and it takes up no land on earth.

Why Space Solar ?

Solar Energy-

In one second our sun produces enoughenergy to meet the current needs of theentire Earth for 500,000 years.

MAJOR PARTS -Solar mirror-

Solar mirrors used to achieve a substantially concentrated reflection factor for solar energy systems.

Solar panel refers to a panel designed to absorb the sun's rays as a source of energy for generating electricity or heating.Solar Photovoltaic panels constitute the solar array of a photovoltaic system that generates and supplies solar electricity in commercial and residential applications.

This electricity is transfer from Space to Earthvia wireless transmission lines.Likes-MICROWAVE transmission.

The energy recived by wireless transmissionLines on the Earth stored and transmite to the Industrial and residential use.

Transmission line-(from space to earth)

Microwave transmission-

Microwave transmission is the transfer energy by electromagneticwave whose wavelength are measure in small numbers of centimeter; these are called microwave.

High efficiency conversion of electricity to microwaves in space and on the earth’S surface microwaves have good transmissioncharacteristics through the earth’s atmosphere, even during periods of heavy cloud cover.High efficiency conversion of electricity to microwaves in space and on the earth’S surface microwaves have good transmissioncharacteristics through the earth’s atmosphere, even during periods of heavy cloud cover.

In the space the Sun rays have high intensity

WORKING-In the space the Sun rays have high intensityAnd the rays falls on the panel mirrors.

When the reflected rays incident on the PVCells or SOLAR PANELS. Then the solar panelGenerates the electricity.

ADVANTAGES-Unlike oil, gas, ethanol, and coal plants,space solar power does not emit greenhouse gases.Unlike terrestrial solar and wind power plants, space solar power is available 24 hours a day.

05/03/2023 15

Unlike nuclear and coil,Space solar power save The ENVIRONMENT.

Unlike nuclear power plants, space solarpower does not provideeasy targets for terrorists.

05/03/2023 16

DISADVANTAGES-

The large size and corresponding cost of the receiving station on the ground.

Space solar power development costs will be very large.

05/03/2023 17

APPLICATIONS-Delivery the power from space to Earth.Powering drone aircraft.To full fill the need of power on the Earth.

In Different industrial applications.

05/03/2023 18

CONCLUSIONS-The SPACE SOLAR system appears as a promising solution for power delivery to elements on planet surfaces.
