Russia will produce energy from the Sun orbiting the Earth

Russian Corporation rostec reported the development of satellite systems of solar energy conversion into laser radiation that will transmit the energy to Earth.

Solar energy conversion will occur on the basis of the oxygen-iodine laser "foil" with a capacity of 1 GW, which will install on the orbiting satellites. Electricity is produced through the use of laser-optical adaptive system for forming the angular divergence of up to 10-7 rad.





On the creation of the device are innovative specialists holding "Schwabe", included in the state Corporation "rostec".

"At the moment we have completed research — our scientists have developed experimental stand with the oxygen-iodine laser pumped by solar radiation. The draft terms of reference for design and experimental work on this invention fully prepared. It is planned that the final stage, involving the creation of laser systems, solar energy conversion will be performed after 2020", — said the first Deputy General Director of the holding "Schwabe" Sergei Popov.





System of conversion of solar energy will be another step towards the transition to renewable energy and "will to change the existing tendency of domination of hydrocarbon sources."

The satellite is powered by solar energy promises to create the company Solar Impulse. The satellite will be to give cheap Wi-Fi Internet and GSM connection, and to help in the observation of the agricultural land. Solar energy will allow him to stay in the sky for many years without needing to be recharged. published
