For a space based solution you have all the costs of solar, plus launch costs, plus the receivers are very large and costly themselves. It’s never going to be cheaper than solar, but it does have the advantage of working at night and through cloud cover. In the very long run it might make more sense to launch whatever’s using the power into space as well, saving on the cost of the transmission and receiving infrastructure, but also removing further sources of pollution from Earth. |
