Space Solar

We're one step closer to bringing space-based solar power to Earth 🌍 In a world first, we've successfully demonstrated 360 wireless power beaming - proving the viability of our CASSIOPeiA design. To highlight the substantial impact our tech can have on future energy systems we shared a demonstration with Sky News Thomas Moore 👇 #SpaceSolar #FutureEnergy #NetZero

We're recruiting! As we realise our CASSIOPeiA concept and push the boundaries of space-based solar power, we're on the lookout for amazing engineers to join our Space Solar team. 👉 RF Engineer & Senior RF Engineer As our RF Engineer, you will be responsible for designing and developing the technologies needed for satellite to ground retrodirective-phased-array wireless power transmission. 👉 Senior Space Systems Engineer This role is responsible for the systems engineering process for the spacecraft, and providing specialist expertise to inform the design, development, build and test of our Space Based Solar Power system and demonstrators. 👉 Mechanical Analysis Engineer You will be responsible for conducting in-depth mechanical and thermal analyses of the entire spacecraft structure, employing a combination of detailed analysis using advanced tools and hand calculations 👉 Mechanical Design Engineer In this role, you will be responsible for designing components, parts, sections and modules of the spacecraft, ensuring seamless integration and functionality.

🌟 The road to space-based solar power... This year SpaceX made history with the successful launch and landing of their Super Heavy booster and Starship. This is a crucial milestone for Space Solar, as Starship will be one of the rockets capable of carrying our infrastructure into space.... Taking us one step closer to delivering clean, sustainable solar power from space to Earth 🛰️ Throwback to the historic launch 👇 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ebnaYCNR #SBSP #CleanEnergy #GreenTech

Our goal is to deliver wireless power transmission on Earth in two years, and mainstream power within the decade. "We’re not only generating responsible, sustainable energy for people on Earth, but we’re also generating the energy to power further enterprise and innovation in space too." - Martin Soltau, Co-CEO We're redefining what is possible 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e2ZJ8MRe #SBSP #EnergySecurity #GreenTech

See our world first wireless beaming technology in person at 🔥THE HEAT. We're thrilled to be sharing this demo with the public for the first time, displaying the potential that Space Solar has to offer. With wireless energy transfer technology becoming a viable reality, we step closer and closer to viable space-based solar power. Catch us there. 📍 THE HEAT 📅 Friday September 20 👉 Harwell Campus, Oxfordshire Book on now 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gfmUcfdE #SBSP #CleanEnergy #EnergyTransition VOYAGERS.io

Is the atmosphere in danger of overheating from radio frequency beams? The short answer? No. Our frequency absorbs minimal energy, staying well within safe limits. Under clouds or sunshine, the impact is negligible. Ready to explore more facts about space-based solar power?👇 https://lnkd.in/gFbRN-ur #SBSP #Sustainability #GreenTech

🌟 We’ve officially moved into a new home! Our spacious office at Harwell is ready to accommodate our growing team and support our ongoing innovation and expansion efforts. 👇 #SBSP #Sustainability #ClimateTech

What are the environmental benefits of space-based solar power? 🌍 Enhanced solar reception is just one of them… 🌟 Minimal Land Use: The 1 km-long receiver is a 'see-through mesh', allowing farmland to thrive underneath. 🌟 Low Carbon Footprint: It saves more carbon than is required for its deployment into space. 🌟 Reduced Infrastructure Impact: By delivering power close to demand, it minimises the need for invasive infrastructure, lessening the overall environmental impact. We are excited to continue developing this technology, aiming to make this concept a reality by 2030. Find out more 👇 🔗 https://lnkd.in/edeYFUyh #SBSP #Sustainability #GreenTech

Want to learn more about the minds behind Space Solar? Recently, we caught up with Co-CEO Martin Soltau to discuss the power of space-based solar power and his journey to where he is now. Having fostered a life-long love of aircraft and obtaining his private pilot license at age 17, Martin has led fascinating programmes across the aerospace industry.

☀️ Will space-based solar heat up the world? Nope! Space-based solar power adds only a minuscule amount of heat to our planet and doesn’t interfere with Earth’s reflectivity, unlike terrestrial solar power. It generates just 0.004% of the solar energy we naturally receive, so won't cause any additional warming. 👇 https://lnkd.in/e6VTZvbG #SBSP #ClimateAction #SolarPower
