Why don't the Transformers use solar power as a source of energy for themselves? Even on Cybertron, they could have collected it. Has this been explained in the comics or cartoons?

In the G1 episode "The master builders" Grapple and Hoist build a solar power collector...

Ah yes, and Optimus won't approve the project because the Decepticons could possibly get their hands on it.
And yet in the next episode, they help the humans build and test a giant death ray...which is promptly stolen by the Decepticons.

In the cartoon, not sure. I don't recall ever seeing a sun on Cybertron's horizon.

You'd think if they would set up solar power 'farms', either on a planet or in space, they could fill up a lot of energon cubes, with very little effort expended. Especially if they kept quiet about it, and didn't let the other side know of it's location.

Well it would make for an abundant power source yes but solar power is still turned into steam power or other means to turn the generators etc...also you need vast solar arrays covering many acres or miles of land or in this case space but it would make for a large and tempting target for any decepticons ( evil plan formulating )that either want to steal it or obliterate it.
It would obviously have to be heavily defended.
