Comment Comment by JoeAltmaier OP suggests that land costs will soon dominate the equation. So no mention of orbital solar plants?Yes, somebody years ago published a study that said, Uneconomical! because lift costs, panel cost, transmission inefficiencies.All of those are now drastically changed, by orders of magnitude. It is not a matter of IF orbital solar is economical, but WHEN. parent JoeAltmaier 2 years ago
