Solar Power Farms

Ida Said:

Everyone talks renewable power. Is there even enough space to build enough wind and solar farms to supply?

We Answered:

Sure, there is plenty of space.
Drive through Utah.
There is enough wind power in North and South Dakota, alone, to power the whole USA electric grid.
Coastal cities should be investing in tidal generators
Desert cities in solar power
The midwest is ripe with places to place dams for hydro electric power

It's all just free energy, flying along. We just have to tap into it.

Jesus Said:

How much land is required to build a 10 mega watt solar power farm?

We Answered:

It depends where you want to build it. Since the output of each solar cell is dependent of sunlight hours, intensity & steadiness, the answer will different depening on where this "solar farm" is located, and what time of the year it is.
