I think space solar could be a big customer for starship.

You have to think like starlink, it's initial goal is not to compete with grid energy, but to provide energy off the grid.
You can get really out of the box with this as well: electric drones that can fly, sail or crawl indefinitely without having to carry heavy batteries or rely on intermittent solar power.
Powering laser thermal craft or dark side bases on the moon.
Providing power to other satellites in orbit.
Enabling very low orbit satellites etc.
