At least two fundamental non-terrestrial energy sources have been proposed: solar-powered energy generation ( unhampered by clouds ), either directly by solar cells or indirectly by focusing solar radiation on boilers which produce steam to drive generators ; and electrodynamic tethers which generate electricity from the powerful magnetic fields of some planets ( Jupiter has a very powerful magnetic field ).

Recently there has been a resurgence of interest in low power solar steam pumps for use in smallholder irrigation in developing countries.
