SPACE SOLAR POWER

Our Recent Efforts in Space Based Solar Power

To create the landscape and conditions for commercial Space Solar Power (SSP) technology by the U.S. to become successful and self-sustaining.

Strategic investment in SSP today will enable cost-competitive baseload clean energy, helping decrease carbon emissions by 2040, and open massive export opportunities to fuel economic growth.
SSP development does not need fundamental scientific breakthroughs. The technology is ready for in-space Now is the time to increase the number, diversity, and pace of space-based demonstrations by the United States.
Developing and deploying commercial SSP is in the U.S.’s immediate national interest. The U.S. needs a whole-of-government and internationally strategic campaign to create a free-world clean power alliance around developing and implementing SSP.

Educate key stakeholders and build connections between diverse and unconnected beneficiaries
Enable congressional involvement through bills and briefings
Identify external obstacles to SSP development and deployment, and raise their profile to enable clarity in problem definition
Empower interested commercial and non-commercial parties by representing them and their shared interests
Strive to serve as an information nexus in all matters related to SSP

Identifying first markets for These are use cases for which SSP is the best and immediate solution to meet a pent up demand that has or will have money to self-sustain.
Setup a trade association with a series of organizations to advance the development and deployment of SSP
Sustained engagement with private companies, executive departments, congressional offices, Think Tanks, international agencies.

Presented on “Harmonizing U.S. Efforts to Commercialize Space Solar Power” at the International Conference for Energy from Space, in London 2024
Collaborated with the Special Competitive Studies Project (SCSP) to host a SSP workshop at the AI Expo for National Competitiveness D.C., 2024. Professionals from diverse backgrounds were brought together with the objective of increasing the inclusion of space-based power as an energy option in strategic planning for their organizations.
We hosted a successful congressional briefing about SSP on the Hill on September 30, with 50+ staffers in attendance, representing the Arms committee, Energy, Commerce & Science committees.
Our latest article on SSP, featured in the POWER energy magazine, showcases its potential to address energy needs across industries like data centers, humanitarian aid, and national security.
We are developing language to be included in the National Defense Authorization Act of 2025 to promote the advancement of space solar power.
Produced and delivered a transition document for the incoming President and his space team.
