You can first decide which area would be ideal for you among the two listed below -
1. Solar Photovoltaics
2. Solar Thermal
Once you decide on any one of them, then you can focus on that specific area.
There is huge research work being carried out on Solar Photovoltaics
You can work on Solar Thermal as improvements are needed for the systems which are already being developed and being used.
Power-to-gas and power-to-liquid, maybe also power-to-ammonia (relevant because of long-term energy storage and "wireless" energy transfer)

Thanks everyone, I am about to start my dissertation at the moment and the above topics are very interesting , I am aiming to cover Solar energy possibly linking it with some relevant current political and Environmental sector , talking to someone who works in the sector would be very helpful !
