RE: Microwave Power Transmission: - How Far, So Far?
Thank you for dropping by.No sir. Unlike short range transmission, the efficiency is like an average. The initial cost of MPT or Wpt in general is higher than the conventional mode of transmission but in the long run, MPT seems cost effective because it eliminates the need for substations, power lines, tower, poles and the likes.
That's true, they should cost less to maintain than the conventional substations.
I hope in time scientists can find a way past the limitations especially the health related ones.
Thanks for the reply.
