The relatively EASY part is building large arrays of solar panels .....

The HARD PART is

1) STORING this electricity ( Storage is very expensive and technology changing)

3) Getting this electricity from the storage to where its wanted - is EXPENSIVE and requires many $BILLIONS of new transmission lines ....

Taking cues from some sci-fi: Could "broadcast power" be a thing? Wireless power on a medium if not mass scale.
