LOL. Henry, what are you smoking tonight? Very few volcanoes have world wide reach. You are talking a Toba sized eruption, and they are few and far between. Ten of thousands of years between.

One good volcanic eruption and you'll be peddling a stationary bike to power your laptop.

Where in HELL are all the volcanoes when we need them most?

Ok pal,
I think you've just overdone yourself. Assuming a volcanic eruption large enough to cover the most of the earth happened any time soon :

a) Obscurity only lasts for a few days unless it is a supervolcano
b) Solar cells work even with partial light
c) If it lasted long enough , solar cells would be the least of our problems. As you probably know plants require solar energy to live. No sunlight = no plants = food chain collapse = ecological and humanitarian disaster.
