I think we'll sooner see fuel cell powered robots than solar powered one's... solar technology just doesn't have a large enough energy density yet...

Fuel cells are still a few years coming... they have methanol powered fuel cells approaching 35% efficiencies, but they can't produce large amounts of current.
