This part isn't necessary, the satellite simply has to be placed in a higher orbit so that it spends very little time in the shade. Of course, now you need to transmit the energy over a greater distance, but you probably want to keep your power satellites in a geostationary orbit anyway so you don't need to keep switching between multiple power satellites
