>Is less panel needed with PV to generate the same amount of electricity?>

No more. Much more. To generate 250 MW of power (peak) would
require about 2 million sq feet of rooftop space...or
the equivalent of 11,000 football fields.


So then, its only advantage over thermal solar is that it generate electricity faster. Is that right?
