Sure, park your solar energy producer on one of the poles,
that way its in the sun all the time (except for lunar eclipses)
either that, or you can build a heat resivoir and store the heat
much as solar houses do with a bed of rocks, and then use
a sterling engine to extract the energy from the heat differential
during the dark period. This only requires a rather large radiator
for the sterling to throw awy its heat. Then some of the excess
thermal energy can be used to heat a living space.
