orbital solar power at such a large scale would only increase the heating of the earth atmosphere, which is is already warmer than usual because the solar energy which had been bound over million of years (in coal & oil ) is now being release almost at once (in a geological timeframe).
Orbital Solar Power plants should be used only to power orbital or lunar industries.
and maybe to decrease the amount of solar energy reaching ground.
Venus should be warning for us.
