The solar panels would be lid by computerized satellites, that could make possible to improve drastically the generation of free energy. 24hours a day. On multiple zones of the surface of the Earth, or Sol III. Sustainable and free.
Considering the costs of building/maintaining the system of mirrors on the orbit and impossibility to manage condition of the atmosphere this idea might be infeasible.

As in,aim beams of light at a solar panel or does it lose what it needs through the transition to supply power?
Holy shit I thought I was way out of line lol thanks!
Yes you can concentrate the sun light on to a solar panel, but as they have said the heat build up is some thing you must determine how to dissipate. The more you concentrate the solar energy the more heat must be handled.

You know those mirror things that are in the desert that heat up oil and the turn water into steam. That then turns a turbine? Shoot I used to cook ants with power of the sun.
You can do it. The best way is to use a sterling cycle engine to run the generator. A prototype system is being developed in California.

So, all these massive mirrors that point to a central cooling tower - surely these mirrors are stopping the suns energy to enter the earth and to radiate back to the atmosphere?

No way. There is so much sunlight coming to the earth, that its gonna have almost zero effect on the environment. Global warming is cause by increasing levels of carbon in our atmosphere. Some of the light from the sun is meant to reflect back...

Solar energy
, Dr Mitsos and Mr Noone found that they could do better. They divided each of the mirrors in a real power plant, PS10, in southern Spain into about 100 pieces. (Or, rather, they divided a computer representation of each mirror.) They then plugged each of those pieces into a computer model that calculated all of the energy losses by noting points where mirrors were not optimally oriented to the sun and places where they hindered one another by blocking incoming or reflected rays. It then rejigged them into a better arrangement.
Fermat’s conjecture
Previous efforts have been directed mainly at stopping the mirrors shading each other, which tends to mean spreading them out. Dr Mitsos and Mr Noone also wanted to save space. In trying to do so they stumbled on an unusual arrangement that had the desired effect. When they showed this layout to a third researcher, Manuel Torrilhon of Aachen University in Germany, he recognised the spiral patterns within it, and this prompted the trio to test a design specifically modelled on nature.
Google Develops New Solar Thermal Mirror Prototype
Google announced last year that they were working on new technology that would make solar thermal energy cheaper than coal. Just a few months later, they have a prototype and expect a product to be ready in as little as a year.
Google's energy czar, Bill Weihl, said the company is focusing on redesigning the mirrors, using alternative materials on the reflective surface and the substrate on which the mirror is mounted. The new technology could halve the cost of building a solar thermal plant and bring the cost of the electricity down to 5 cents/kWh or less.
The prototype is being internally tested before more rigorous external testing, but two solar companies, BrightSource and eSolar, are already interested in the technology. Google is a major investor in both companies and has said if the prototype works, the companies would use the technology.
