Japan’s Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has achieved a technological milestone by successfully transmitting solar energy wirelessly from a satellite in orbit to a receiving station on Earth. The experiment, carried out last weekend, demonstrates potential for clean, limitless power without relying on weather conditions.
The energy beam—transmitted via microwaves—lit up a test facility in western Japan. The breakthrough could revolutionize renewable energy industries worldwide.
Experts in Bhutan and Nepal, both nations with mountainous terrain and limited solar accessibility during monsoons, see this as a future opportunity for energy imports or shared technological frameworks with Japan and other advanced economies.
