How Mirrors Could Solve our Energy Problem

I've been talking about something like this for years(about 30), in that we need to use the suns passive radiant heat energy for power, but it comes down to energy storage.  If we can develop energy storage batteries we are closer and could make them in space with 24/7 sunlight, but the real key is a self charging battery which would also be the foundation for AGI...I'm glad companies are using my ideas and are actually making progress on it, I'll keep working on the self charging batteries though and maybe that will fund my astrophysics degree...or my loan debt when I finish getting it.
A self charging battery has something to do with a tesla coil and magnets north and south poles cycling the energies...what do you think?  Human beings/life forms are self charging batteries and we can mimic that too for the battery and AGI.
