A model cost/benefit analysis of solar power. The main ingredients of this analysis are the power used (required) and the power delivered. For a simple model we want to use broader averages. Used: An American home has an average power use of 1.2 kW. That means that considering all of the daily variation, the difference between night and day and the seasons, etc., the average at any given second is 1.2 kJ per sec = 1.2 kW. Delivered: The home...
