Answer
Solar power striking per square meter = 168 W
Efficiency = 10%
Solar power which can be produced per square meter = 168/10 = 16.8 W
Energy requirement $= 12000 MW = 1.2 \times 10^{10} W$
Area required $= \frac{1.2 \times 10^{10} W}{16.8 W/m^{2}} = 7.14 \times 10^{8} m^{2}$
Work Step by Step
Given above.
