If your a geek you can read all about it on wiki here.
If not the here is the run down. The JAXA, or Japanese Space Agency is planning on putting 'Solar Island' into space come 2030. Which is pretty sweet because the Sun is only abundant!
The test begins with a floating micro blimp above a collector dish. JAXA plans on sending solar energy threw a 2.4GHz band similar to your cordless home phone. The test will only power a small heater, but the results are expected to create an array of wireless Solar Satellites. The Projects Goal is to produce a space platform that can generate 1 gigawatt of energy which is enough to power 50,000 homes.
I might be preaching to the choir, but didn't Tesla have a wireless machine?
