Solar power
The Second Doctor uses a portable device that runs on solar power to kill an Ice Warrior. (TV: The Seeds of Death)

Solar power was the use of solar energy to generate electricity. While using Daniel Eldred's rocket, the Second Doctor, Zoe Heriot and Jamie McCrimmon relied on a homing beam that functioned with solar power. When the solar power source was disabled, the rocket was left to float in space.

Phipps used a solar power generator to kill two Ice Warriors. The system overloaded but Gia Kelly repaired it.

The Doctor adapted the system so that it could be held in the hands and aimed. He used this to kill an Ice Warrior at the Weather Control Station.

Before heading to the Moon by T-Mat, the Doctor again adapted the device so that it was fully portable. With this he attacked an Ice Warrior guard, killing it before he was forced to surrender. (TV: The Seeds of Death)

Cars on Red Rocket Rising ran on solar cells instead of petrol, which meant that there was no petrol to combust. (AUDIO: Blood of the Daleks)

Pete Tyler once tried to "invent" solar panels. (TV: Father's Day)
