To utilize solar energy, we will combine technologies to efficiently convert sunlight into lasers or microwaves in geosynchronous satellite orbits, to transmit beams to the ground without spreading and fluctuations caused by diffraction and atmospheric turbulence, and to efficiently convert high-intensity beams into electric power.

In addition to energy transmission from space, it is expected to be used as a power distribution system for mobile devices such as drones and automobiles, a power distribution system using microgrids, and power supply for remote islands and evacuation centers in the event of a disaster.

Can be applied to agricultural industry: data allows semi-automatic fertilizer technology; to plan optimal harvests by applying IoT and weather data (sustainable agriculture using solar power and space network).
