Space solar power project and a theoretically performable solar energy policy with some proposed improvement measures for energy transition in the future

For the renewable energies (REs), solar power generation is currently the most common. Some countries are currently competing to develop Space Solar Power (SSP) projects, hoping to take the lead in this race to obtain energy from space with high conversion efficiency. In Taiwan, the SSP generation project is expected to cost US$4 billion in research and development in the next five years, and subsequent costs will be astronomical. From an energy management perspective, these proposed improvement measures will be powerful to improve the effectiveness of generating electricity for the SSP system and the solar panels on the ground, so that obtained energy from them can be integrated into an integrated energy (IE), as well as corresponding recycling measures and a reliable energy storage system (ESS) are used. This ESS can store much solar energy to avoid the phenomenon of duck curve and negative electricity prices. Therefore, combing with the concept of the IE, there is a theoretically performable solar energy policy for energy transition in the future. However, in Taiwan, such energy transition using the REs concerns must be considered not only in terms of energy availability at an affordable price, but also from a political and social perspective.
