My guess would be it’s a play on how every time humans develop some new method for generating electricity, it always comes back to boiling water and turning a turbine with steam.
What about wind turbines?
They use wind, which mainly is generated by the Sun unevenly heating a vast body of fluid, creating pressure gradients that set it in motion, which… in turn drives a turbine… goddammit.
Anyone got the meme this is referencing?

There’s also solar thermal where you redirect sunlight to a central reservoir to heat up water to yada yada yada.
Big ol’ tower of fucking mirrors, designed to turn natural light into a fucking laser who’s entire purpose is to generate steam… To spin a turbine.
