Big Tech accused of AI ‘greenwashing’ - A new report has found that “the promises of planet-saving tech remain hollow.”

Japan Successfully Beams Solar Power from Space to Earth in Historic Energy Test

 Feb. 16, 2026 

Japan has achieved a breakthrough in renewable energy by wirelessly transmitting electricity from orbit to Earth for the first time.

The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) successfully sent power collected by solar panels in space to a ground station using microwave transmission. The test proves that clean energy can be harvested beyond the planet and delivered without physical cables.

The demonstration marks a critical step toward space-based solar farms that could one day power cities with continuous, weather-proof renewable energy.

B.C. Energy Minister Adrian Dix says an incoming transmission line will help support major LNG projects in northwest B.C. (Ben Nelms/CBC)

B.C. Energy Minister Adrian Dix says an agreement between B.C. Hydro and the Nisga'a First Nation will help power a planned floating liquid natural gas terminal in northwestern B.C. across the finish line.

Dix said the agreement, marked by the signing of a memorandum of understanding in Prince George, B.C., on Tuesday, will see the North Coast Transmission Line supply up to 600 megawatts to what proponents say will be Canada's second-largest LNG facility.

Construction of the line is expected to start this summer.
