        There are these things called batteries, and they don’t have to be made from Lithium.

        Also, you could take it literally and burn wood to harness the warm energy surrounding it on a winter night.

          Batteries are expensive, and having a solar array and battery bank large enough to power your home all winter would be prohibitively expensive.

          This is why we ideally have a wide range of energy sources. It’s usually raining and windy in winter.
