But, what does                       
too much information
mean?

Thursday, state regulators approved 
PG&E's request to buy electricity from an orbiting solar power plant - if the 
company designing the project can ever 
get it off the ground.

Solaren Corp., a startup in Los Angeles 
County, plans to place a large array of solar panels in orbit, where they would bathe in near-constant sunshine undimmed by the earth's atmosphere. The plant, which Solaren hopes to launch before 2016, would use electromagnetic waves to transmit power to a receiving station in Fresno County.

PG&E and California's other large, investor-owned utilities are under state orders to increase their use of renewable power as part of the state's fight against global warming. By the end of next year, 20 percent of the electricity the utilities deliver must come from renewable sources, a deadline they are widely expected to miss.

The Japanese government also plans to have a pilot space-based solar project ready by 2015.
