Tim Peake: Solar Farms in Space -- Viable and Vital
Astronaut Tim Peake backs space-based solar farms, with SpaceX rockets bringing costs down to $300 per kilo. ESA's Solaris programme looks to launch solar panels into space, with UK funding to create energy equivalent to a large power station. However, the technology is still years away from solving any energy challenges.

Australia’s AEMC calls for energy pricing and transmission overhaul
The Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) has released a new paper outlining a blueprint to coordinate generation and transmission investments. The draft proposal seeks to overhaul wholesale pricing and transmission access to lower electricity costs and the ever-increasing risks inherent in getting new renewable energy generation capacity into the network.

Perovskite and also organic solar cells soared into space
For the very first time, researchers in Germany sent perovskite as well as natural solar cells on a rocket right into room. The solar cells held up against the severe conditions in space, creating power from direct sunshine as well as reflective light from the Earth's surface area. The work, published August 12 in the journal Joule, establishes the structure for future near-Earth application in addition to prospective deep space missions.
