How can one convey meaning -to mass audiences- if not by a representation that makes sense to that audience you're addressing?

In the stated case, mass audience can grasp area subject to sunlight and comprehend that in terms of W of electricity.

A non-simpleton will consider (just scratching the surface):

Latitude where the area is located
a % of that area is below the surrounding buildings.
Municipal regulations
Adaptations of the electrical installations to make use of the power generated
Back up systems for cloudy days
...
...

Any new solution is only an adjunct to the main solution that's already mass deployed.

The test for a new solution success is if it fits the purpose of being an adjunct. Here is a test for an adjunct's success.

Ethanol passes the test as an adjunct.
It doesn't junk the internal combustion engine. Just an adaptation
It doesn't change the gas stations, just add another underground tank
Drivers do not need to change their mileage pattern. Same 50L tank.
