Is it true that you can get 4kwh per day per square meter? My average electricity consumption is ~15kwh/day, so if I can potentially offset most of my grid usage with just 4 square meters of solar panel, that seems very attractive. I live in a tropical country btw.
No, 4kwh is about the daily amount of sun hitting 1 square meter. Solar panels can capture about 20% of that
Build a Dyson Sphere and make $188 septillion/year
Return on investment in just 37,561 years, start building today!
If you need that kind of power return on investment Is irrelevant anyway.
Death Star won't power itself you know!
And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow
But if the offer's shunned, you might as well be installing solar panels on the sun
So don't delay, act now! Supplies are running out
Allow, if you're still alive
Six to eight years to arrive in low solar orbit
