"2035: Solar Space Farm to Revolutionize Energy Generation"

UK-based technology firm Space Solar plans to launch a solar space farm by 2035, consisting of a 2km-long farm of solar panels orbiting above the Earth. The company claims that this technology could produce more renewable energy than terrestrial equivalents, harnessing the intense sunlight available in space. The project aims to contribute to Britain's energy supply and could become a vital power source, using less land area compared to terrestrial solar farms and offshore wind farms while producing significantly more renewable energy. The UK government has allocated funds for space solar research projects and an international initiative studying space-based solar power.
