    The sun is the biggest source of Energy on Earth. There’s no point trying to find an alternative energy source, because even if it existed, it would probably be much more expensive than getting energy directly from the sun.

    and since all energy comes from the sun anyways, accessing it in the most direct way possible is obviously both most efficient and also least complicated. and that is why we have photoelectric machines, aka. PV panels.

      Idk man. Cloud and air efficiency seems higher, even with the added propeler and magnetism step in there. Then again lost panel energy goes into air.
