Space-based solar power is the cool technology of the future, although the concept was conceived hundreds of years ago. Years later in 1941, American writer Isaac Asimov based a science-fiction story on this concept, in which a solar power satellite beams energy down to our home planet and even to the other settlements in the solar system.

That can mean a decrease in your total energy use, but not necessarily. If cooling your house gets cheaper because you’re more energy efficiency, you might decide you can afford to keep your house even cooler. First, a clean energy system is going to need a lot of solar panels, wind turbines, and batteries.
