Best solution to humidity (if it did become a problem) would be to condense it inside the car and then somehow get it into the sewer system.

Actually, solar panels do not need a bright, sunny day to work. They produce just as much energy on an overcast day. Oh, and I'm pretty sure that a house with solar panels covering its roof can expect to be pretty much self-sufficient. Flats/ office blocks where you have a lot more people space for the roof area are a different matter.

Did anyone readd that thing about generating power from the Earth's magnetic field? You have a really long cable of some kind on an orbital platform, rotating. Apparently this can (theoretically) be used to generate power.

Of course, how that power then gets back to Earth is a different matter...
