Hmm .... Mars has nearly no atmosphere, and, thus, nearly no bad weather, clouds, fog, rain, etc. That is, it's sunshine all the time!
Sooo, for Mars, just put the solar panels near the equator and fairly densely all around the circumference. Then, wow, have solar power 100% of the time!
Do the same on Earth??? Ah, have some jungles, mountains, two major oceans, and a lot of bad weather. For the oceans, sure, have floating solar arrays. Right, need to think about how deep the power cables to the shore would be, 3-7 miles down and then back up?
But the Internet has some cables across oceans!! Sooo, we could also have power cables???
Ah, sounds like only for Mars!
