    Addressed in the first paragraph - 1 kw is 24 kWh a day. 5 kWh suggests a 20 percent capacity factor. Degradation is minimal (less than a percent a year).

    Why would you be going further north than Bavaria? Bavaria is already very north. 90 percent of the world’s population lives south of Germany, roughly.

    Anyway you’ll see the last 3.3 percent of total land area is what would be required if solar only had a capacity factor of two percent.
