If that region gets little sun, how can you use solar to use
electrolysis to get the O2 and H2 out ?


Put the panels at the top of the crater and run cables. Solar is a
bad solution for the Moon, though, since you need to be able to get
through two weeks with no sun. Nuclear, fuel cells, or any other
technology that doesn't rely on the Sun is better.

Except at the poles for the same reason some of the crater bottoms never
see sunlight, some of the crater rims are permanently lit. Put your
solar panels up there and they can track the sun as it scoots round the
horizon.


North pole only. The south pole stays in shadow more than the rest of
the Moon, which is why the interest in looking for water there.
