The means to lift enough Solar Electric Power Stations into GEO to provide the world civilizations with enough electrtic power to sustain them, without depleating the last of the world's petrochemical fossil fuel reserves, is the primary urgency to create KESTS to GEO as soon as possible.

Solar power plants in GEO were proposed back in 1969, Peter Glaser and Gordon Woodcock to research for info. SSPS, their acronym, were proposed back then to supply the world with clean electric power, free of CO2 emissions greenhouse effect risk. Built in GEO so that there would be fixed aim of their milli-micro-wave transmitters would go to specific rectenna converters on the earth surface, to put electric power into the commercial power grids. The power would come from solar energy as recieved in GEO, 7 times as much energy as received by average equal area on the ground. GEO is in free fall, so huge structures can be built to collect solar power over vast areas, to be converted into the radio beams down to the earth surface rectennas. Question as to effect of the beams on vehicles and birds flying through them remain to be answered, although the actual eergy density is about the same as sunlight, except is as coherent energy at fixed frequency.

The problems have been of how to lift these huge structures into GEO, and how to make the beams fixed and not directable as would be a risk for misuse by military purposes, a guarantee surely required before nations would allow such power plants to be built.

KESTS to GEO would then make it possible to lift the construction materials for these powerplants into GEO, and for maintenance facilities in GEO too, as initial uses for KESTS.
