Just stop fucking with nature, it never ends well!
We already have these they are called Solar Panels, they absorb the Sun's energy and turn its heat into Electricity.
If you covered the Sahara Desert in Solar Panels the Global temperature would lower by 1.5C and you'd have 4000x as much electricity as we need.

Trump insiders made billions this week off destroying the US financial system. And yes, torching global trust in us treasures does just that
I’m leading a letter with Rep. Terri Sewell and 131 colleagues demanding answers from the White House, USTR, Treasury, Commerce, and the SEC.
Who knew about Trump’s tariff reversal? When did they know? How did they know?
$300B didn’t move by accident. This is market manipulation.

The tax gap is giving the rich time to pay - which in turn is resulting in benefit cuts for the poor.
Well done, Labour. Well done.

Quite apart from anything else, Tesla stock is wildly overvalued and increasingly subject to the instability of Musk and this US admin. It's an obvious sell for a pension scheme.
