Could this be future free energy?

In summary: Where is the environmental impact?Aside from the environmental impact, which is negligible, there is the matter of cost. Electricity is expensive, and building out a solar grid would be expensive. It's not practical at this time.Interesting concept. The environmental impact of implementing solar power would be disastrous due to the significant albedo increase of the Earth's surface. The cost of electricity is expensive, and building out a solar grid would be expensive. It's not practical at this time.
