FFS you people need to get good at KSP.You can have a sun-synchronous orbit that processes to match the rotation and orbit of the Earth's orientation relative to the sun.
The normal way to do it is to keep line of sight with the sun, to power the solar panels or to directly observe the sun itself. The same orbit offset by 180 degrees would keep the satellite in the Earth's shadow.
