Reply to comment by toesy in Over 25 GW of solar is actively being constructed in the U.S. by CurseMeKilt
Dude, OP was quoting instantaneous power, not energy. That's why they were wrong.

Electricity is needed 24 hours a day, 25 GW of solar is not providing 25 GW of continuous electricity to the grid for 24 hours.
Therefore 25 GW of solar puts the same amount of electrons to the grid as 6.25 GW of base load.
