Google's Loon Project involves having the balloons float over the weather. So cloud cover isn't the issue. Batteries only have to function at night. Furthermore each drone will in software limit itself to N active connections (just like cell towers do), so you just use that N to calculate max battery draw, then size batteries appropriately.
