100 Percent Solar Power

Could we really power entire nations using nothing but sunlight? Chile's Atacama Desert already generates 16% of its electricity from solar farms, while Germany – not exactly famous for sunny weather – hit 12% solar in its energy mix last quarter. The math seems simple: Earth receives enough sunlight in 90 minutes to power global energy needs for a year. But here's the rub – capturing and distributing that energy isn't as straightforward as slapping panels on rooftops.
