I watched Spider Man 2 and Doc Ock said he could harness the power of the sun. Can humans today do that today for renewable power and energy forever?

We aren’t sure if the sun will engulf Earth. Some think that our orbit will expand as the sun gets bigger: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-sun-will-eventually-engulf-earth-maybe/

I don’t think either of us will find it out, though.
