Just to make sure I understand this solar power thing: 1. Peak solar constant on the earth’s surface = 1 kw/meter 2. Photovoltaic efficiency = 20% 3. Intermittency efficiency = 20% (this is the relation of the peak to the average unit time, totalling across day and night, good weather and bad, summer and winter) [...]
