The laws of Physics would be the first to negate the idea of beaming down a kilowatt.
They would? You never heard of focussed beam antennas, synchronous satellites, and frequencies that penetrate the atmosphere?

Communications satellites outputting hundreds of watts are already up.

Total output power is as high as approximately 400 W, with eight 20-W SSPAs and twenty-three 10-W SSPAs.
