1) I'm no moron. and I said long term. This effectively increases the amount of energy the earth absorbs, without increasing the amount it radiates. put these satellites in independent orbit around the sun, and beam the energy in. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyson_sphere#Dyson_swarm 2) yes, heat that must be radiated away, or it contributes to the temperature of the planet. not worried about heat generation, but net increase of energy to the planet.
