For instance, the most direct service is music.

These could be either charged for or made free of charge, and regardless of how it’s handled afterwards, leaving an interface open is definitely the right move.

The only revenue stream that had been decided upon now was energy consumption; the Unlimited Power Company planned to charge automobiles between 0.1 to 0.2 Chinese Yuan per kilometer.

This energy consumption cost is slightly higher than that of electric cars, but significantly lower than that of gasoline vehicles.

But in fact, the revenue related to energy transmission was, for the time being, nothing more than a name because the first batch of Unlimited Power Automobiles was very limited in number.

Ten thousand cars, each traveling an average of ten thousand kilometers, would generate only about ten million Chinese Yuan in energy transmission-related revenue, which is just a small addition to the income from car sales.

After completing the test of the light energy receiver and converter, the enthusiasm of the cooperative manufacturers soared. Their attitude toward the collaboration with Yixing Unlimited Power Company became ’even if it means operating at a loss, the quality must be ensured.’ freeweɓnovel.cѳm

The opportunity to enter the market with Unlimited Power Automobile technology is not something that money can buy.

Zhao Yi invited the partner companies to participate in the test of the light energy receiver and converter, with the hope that they would produce even better products.

One month later.

The control room of Yixing Unlimited Power Company received a message from the Aerospace Bureau, knowing that the Energy-Gathering Satellite had been placed into its designated orbit.

At the same time, the Energy-Gathering Satellite was slowly unfolding its circular wings.

This process would take about two hours.

After the completion of the circular wing deployment, the Energy-Gathering Satellite would quickly convert solar energy, having a power output of over one thousand kilowatts, enough to support the operation of its internal devices. At the same time, it would start the spatial light energy transmission assembly, establishing a channel for energy transmission. The space link equipment assembly would also be activated.

The control room of the Aerospace Bureau could directly receive the images transmitted by the Energy-Gathering Satellite and monitor and control the satellite.

They would pass the images and inspection data on to the control room of Yixing Unlimited Power Company.

Very soon.

Zhao Yi received a message from the control room that the Energy-Gathering Satellite was operating normally, and he also received a series of data.

Through a series of test data, it was estimated that the Energy-Gathering Satellite could transmit up to 1.9 times 10 to the power of twelve joules of light energy per hour.

This data also indicated that even if the receiving end converted the energy to electricity at fifty percent efficiency, it could easily exceed 250,000 kilowatts.

"250,000 kilowatts, that’s higher than expected!"

"Eighty percent is also 200,000 kilowatts. Moreover, the efficiency of the light energy receiver and converter’s electricity conversion is far greater than fifty percent."

"With so much energy, we can support ten thousand cars operating at medium power continuously. Producing only ten thousand cars for the first batch was too conservative!"

Zhao Yi thoughtfully looked toward the prototype. The prototype was full of a sense of technology, seemingly a product of future tech, mainly red and grey in color, with an aerodynamic tail that would automatically deploy when the speed exceeds one hundred miles per hour.

The prototype was a five-seater sedan, convenient for user travel.

Most of the prototype had already been assembled, except for the core light energy receiver and converter. Once the Energy-Gathering Satellite began official operation, they could test the light energy receiver and converter. Afterward, they could apply to the transportation department for permission to conduct road tests.

The prototype testing would last for about two months, covering enough miles and collecting enough data. After passing the relevant approvals, it could then officially go on sale.
