- Question 7: Certain areas in Arizona, Nevada, California and Texas can have up to 4000 sunny hours a year. The fact that these vast lands are less populated and agriculturally not suitable makes them ideal for solar power plants. Though most commercial solar panels have efficiencies from 15% to 20%, researchers have now developed solar cells with efficiencies approaching 50%. If you are asked to plant a solar energy system in these areas using the newest technology, how much land do you need to produce enough energy for the US. Make the conservative assumptions that the average light energy landing to the Earth' surface is 1.0 cal/(cm2 min). An estimate for the US energy consumption by major sources is given below.
