How many square feet of solar panel is needed to replace the Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Plant?
A lot! The US Energy Information Administration says that the Vermont Yankee has a capacity of 620 megawatts during the summer. To generate 5 megawatts of solar power requires a solar farm about 30-35 acres large. Since 620 divided by 5 is 124, you would need 124 x 30 acres of solar plants. That comes to a total of 3,720 acres! One acre is 43,560 square feet. This means that it would require 162,043,200 square feet of solar farm to replace the facility which takes up less than one acre. And that's based on the low estimate. If you are looking for alternatives to the Vermont Yankee, I suggest you look elsewhere, because solar won't do it in Vermont.
Why do space probes have solar panels?
The Sun is the only place they can get energy in interplanetary space. It would be impossible at the moment to send them with enough fuel reserves to do everything we want them to.
What happens on a cloudy day when you use solar power?
The solar output power will be reduced. If you are relying on it and don't have other sources of power this is a problem. You would need to have a large battery for backup, this would also occur at night.
Which would make a better solar power plant a polar reigon or a desert region?
A desert region would make a better location for a solar power plant due to its high levels of sunlight exposure and minimal cloud cover. Polar regions receive less sunlight and have longer periods of darkness, making them less ideal for solar energy production.
Does a solar powered heater work on the dark side of the moon?
No, a solar powered heater would not work on the dark side of the moon as it relies on sunlight to generate power. The lack of sunlight on the dark side of the moon would prevent the solar panels from generating electricity to power the heater.
What would there be if there was no electricity?
You said it, no electricity. But with the advent of more efficient solar, wind and hydro power plants we'll pretty much have a power supply until the planet dies.
Why does the power supply unit have a fan built?
To keep the power supply cool. If there were no fan the power supply would overheat and fail.

If you had a solar power house how would you power your building?
The solar power can power your house. Solar power energy can be used to power many things, it just depends on how many solar panels you have. Tioga Energy specializes in solar power. They install and facilitate the solar panels but the customer agrees to buy power from the power generated from the solar panels.www.tiogaenergy.com
Can you use a graphics card that requires a power supply of 270watts on a machine with a power supply of 250watts?
I believe this would be unwise, it would overload the power supply and it may overheat.
Is a 24VDC power supply short-circuit protected?
That would depend on the power supply.
Can you run solar panels on 250watt sodium bulb?
Running solar panels directly on a 250-watt sodium bulb is not feasible because solar panels generate electricity from sunlight, while a sodium bulb requires a specific electrical supply to operate. However, you can use solar panels to power an appropriate electrical system that can then supply energy to a sodium bulb, assuming you have the necessary inverter and battery storage to manage the power requirements. This setup would involve converting the DC output from the solar panels into AC power suitable for the bulb.
What is the use of solar battery chargers?
I would assume that a solar battery charger is used to charge batteries using the sun's energy. It is a good choice for a green power supply. I'm not very knowledgeable about these things, though.
What power station supply west London in electricity?
West London gets its electricity supply from various power stations located across the UK, connected through the National Grid. Some of the power stations that contribute to the electricity supply in this area include gas-fired power stations, nuclear power plants, and renewable energy sources such as wind and solar farms.
What would happen to solar power if there was no Sun?
Solar is Sun so without the Sun there is no solar.
Why would you recommend solar power?
My family doesn't use solar power but I would reccomend it because it's cheaper and freindlier to the enviroment.
How much land area would be covered by solar panels to replace Fukushima?
Fukushima generated 3,400 MW on average. One of the world's largest solar power plants is Agua Caliente Solar Project, which generates 626 GW·h / yr = 71 MW on average. So it would take 48 of the world's largest solar power plants to replace the Fukushima plant. Agua Caliente takes up 2,400 acres, so the total amount of land area required to replace Fukushima with solar panels is 2400*48 = 114,500 acres, which is about half the area of Hong Kong, or 132 times the area of the Fukushima plant.
