The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has been conducting studies on both microwave- and laser-based Space Solar Power Systems (SSPS) for years, organizing a special committee and working groups. The on-ground rectifying antenna would collect the microwave beam and convert it to electricity to connect to commercial power grids.

For example, the investor offering the lowest feed-in tariff would be awarded the contract to build a new wind farm. Siemens proposes that these costs would no longer be included in the electricity price but covered via a fixed-cost, flat-rate payment for the grid connection. One possibility here is auctions.
