They can try all they like, but the math doesn't check out at all. The paint can't be any more efficient than a solar panel of the same size.

If you had a small electric car, carbon fiber or aluminum

in one hour you could get about 20 MJ or 5.5kWh

Battery 25 kg with 220 Wh/kg

That could get you 28 to 37 km, or 17 to 23 mi.

So today's tech the store and back.

With 20% efficient solar receiver

An night you could use the moon or lightning bugs
