Overview Energy, a startup developing space-based solar power systems, announced an agreement to provide energy for data centers operated by Meta.
Overview emerged from stealth last December, announcing that it had demonstrated technologies to collect solar power in space and transmit it to Earth through infrared lasers.
The companies announced April 27 an agreement under which Overview will transmit up to one gigawatt of power that will be used by Meta data centers when other sources of energy, like terrestrial solar power, are unavailable.
