US Navy wirelessly beams 1.6 kW of power a kilometer using microwaves
1km through the atmosphere is probably all you need to verify that the approach would work for Space Based Solar. I know the military is interested in that. Imagine being able to deploy energy anywhere on Earth and not have to setup a logistics chain to facilitate it. That&#x27;s priceless. The economics for SBS don&#x27;t really make sense to me, for domestic energy consumption. But economics are irrelevant if it enables you to project power deeper into hostile territory.
