So then you need 15km² to cover the day, another 5-10km² to cover the night, and then however much space and lithium it’s going to take to store all that energy.
And this still doesn’t solve the problem once you’re a little too far off the equator.
Sodium ion, ammonium/hydrogen production, elevated hydro, compressed air, etc. There are lots of options that are being built up. There is also a lot of desert in the world. It would be a major undertaking but it’s possible.
