You can burn coal at night.

Turning the sun on at midnight is somewhat more difficult.

It's currently midnight in Australia. Please advice on how to turn on sun.

Here it's half past three and the sun set an hour ago - and polar night starts on the 28th.

My silly point was mostly that solar has its limits. Here we have polar day in summer - so the sun does not set (at midnight or otherwise).
