That was a lot of words spent to totally and utterly fail to answer my question.
The sun? Great. You've achieved an answer as deep as the Occupy movement's suggestion of using hydro to power Alberta.
Lets take a rather superficial look at your suggestion though. Power the world using solar. Ok.
How many solar panels would it take to power the entire globe? How much space would that take?
Who pays for the manufacturing? Who pays for the R&D to design more efficient builds? Who actually constructs them? Who pays for that? And more importantly, given you have made it very clear that this is to be free power, why would you expect anyone to fund all of this with a promised ROI of 0?
Incidentally, do you practice what you preach? Have you eliminated your reliance on oil for 'free' energy? Do you eschew the accumulation of wealth in favour of altruism and working for the betterment of others? Or are you, like so many other wannabe Earth Rangers, demanding that other people take the step you won't?
