According to the patent Apple is not going to fully invest in the solar power solution, instead it will use the existing technologies to start with. In Apple patent the power management is meant to get both power adapter and solar power direct from gathering devices or traditional mains-based chargers. The power management system would comprise a system micro controller (SMC) and a charger. Power would run in the system from either an AC-to-DC adapter or directly from a photovoltaic solar panel's output, which is DC only, then be measured and converted to the necessary voltage.
