SOLAR SPACE POWER

SOLAR SPACE POWER

2023
EMERGING TECH

Can we use Solar Power in Space to supply energy for Earth’s consumption?

The concept of Space Based Solar Power (SSP) systems is to collect solar power in high earth orbits and then transmits it wirelessly to Earth.


The technology’s maturity is progressively increasing but still faces multiple challenges. Different concepts of SSP are currently being developed over the world.

LIGHT-DRIVEN CHEMISTRY TO SOLAR FUELS PRODUCTION

arrow_forward

Photosynthesis efficiently captures solar energy, but its subsequent conversion into chemical energy in the form of biomass is limited in term of efficiency in the range between 1 to 4%. 

PYROLYSIS FOR TURQUOISE HYDROGEN?

Methane pyrolysis is a set of emerging technologies that allow hydrogen production while avoiding CO2 emissions. Carbon is stored in a solid form.

CIRCUL(AIR)FUELS

arrow_forward

CirculAIR fuels concept is the reaction between CO2 and H2 towards e-fuels yields water which can be used to produce H2. It also produces heat which can be used to capture the CO2 from the air. 

NATURE BASED SOLUTIONS

Recently recognized by the IPCC and IEA as necessary to offset hard-to-abate emissions and eventually, to go beyond net-zero, Negative Emissions Technologies will play a main role but Natural Based Solutions (NBS) even more.
