Renewable Energy: This Map Shows How Much Room Is Needed To Supply The ENTIRE WORLD With Solar Energy Renewable Energy: This map shows how much room we would need to cover to supply the ENTIRE WORLD with solar energy – And it is much smaller than what you think! Photo: Nadine May (figure 12 in the diploma thesis)This map above shows the areas to be covered by SOLAR PANELS to deliver enough solar electricity for Germany (De), Europe (EU-25), and the entire world. Of course, the tricky part is collecting that energy and converting it into useful electricity with solar panels strangesounds.org Total Surface Area Required to Fuel the World With SolarAugust 13, 2009 Dividing the global yearly demand by 400 kW•h per square meter (198,721,800,000,000 / 400) and we arrive at 496,804,500,000 square meters or 496,805 square kilometers (191,817 square miles) as the area required to power the world with solar panels. This is roughly equal to the area of Spain. At first that sounds like a lot and it is. But we should put this in perspective. landartgenerator.org
