Thirty seven states and many countries have initiated Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) and other initiatives to adopt improved energy generation alternatives. SSP is among the most attractive new energy sources, offering a 99.3% capacity factor (naturally baseload), with low CO2 intensity, and near zero fuel and water use. SSP would be utility-scale solar energy collection at GEO employing wireless transmission to Earth for use by existing major power grids. SSP is not yet available for RPS, although international efforts are underway to enable its adoption. For example, the June 2013 issue of IEEE Proceedings, devoted to Wireless Power Transmission, continues to increase our understanding of SSP’s key technical challenges and solutions.
