You could build some floating megastructures to hold a bunch of solar panels out in the ocean, but making batteries seems a little easier.
- DamonHD 9mo agoOr you could call them interconnectors strung with solar and wind generation. In any case, if PV is available from somewhere on the globe much of each 24h, and cars are plugged in to recharge then (typical UK cars are parked ~96% of the time), then it's mainly a transmission problem again, maybe?
