Tidal. If we large areas of coastline with electricity generating turbos then the energy created will be quite a large amount (I guess). The tides are also always existent and stable. Although I don't really oppose any other method as well (except nuclear is they use long half-life elements like Cesium)

They aren't always consistant though, sometimes they're a LOT higher
As for solar collectors in space, put them completely encircling the globe (with gaps in between of course) in geo-stationary orbit. Line up microwave dishes on the ground then BAM unlimited microwave power being beamed down 24-7.
But it would cost billions, if not trillions to get it to work.
