This is an awesome point related to the post I just made as a sibling comment. Solar energy is cheap! The sun blasts us with whatever crazy number real energy folks know by heart. The issue is after we collect it, how do we move it?

If you’ve read Project Hail Mary, the sci-fi part isn’t collecting energy, its the lossless transport.

Hopefully that’s not a spoiler.
