China's Zhuri Project Aims to Utilize Space-Based Energy Beams to Influence Typhoons
The Zhuri project, led by Duan Baoyan, seeks to establish a megawatt-class space-based power station by 2030. It aims to use microwave beams to heat moisture in storm systems, potentially altering typhoon intensity and path. The project, proposed in 2013, envisions a circular solar power station in geostationary orbit capable of generating gigawatt-level electricity. Recent advancements include a ground-based system that can transmit power to multiple moving receivers simultaneously.

Zhuri envisions a kilometer-scale solar power station in geostationary orbit, generating gigawatt-level electricity. In 2022, a 75-meter test tower was built to simulate the process, achieving milestones like one-to-many microwave transmission, allowing power to be sent to multiple receivers at once.
