You clearly don’t know Solar because you’re asking about mWh from a single panel, then you’re asking about the battery size? The battery is sized to the field. If it’s a 500 megawatt site (which is a small one competitively) then the battery will be sized accordingly so that the site charges it during the day and then discharged at night to keep power flowing into the grid.

An EV will take about 50kWh to fully charge, and that can be done with a single 50kw string inverter and about 150 individual Solar modules (panels). So with a single inverter (there are literally hundreds on some sites) I can fully charge an EV in less than 30 minutes with a super charger.

And before you give me shit saying about the dumb wall charger taking way longer, yes but it will use the same amount of power overall to charge the vehicle because it’s still the same amount of wattage.

You keep acting like there’s some magical math equation that makes you right and there isn’t because you’re not.

Jesus Christ do you know what a battery is? I literally work in Solar the output is whatever you want it to be based on the field size and whatever transformer you’re using, with a battery storage system it can output all night too. I have no idea where you’re getting the idea that EV’s have this crazy charging requirement that can’t be met, it just isn’t true.

Definitely not what I said, I never implied all criticism was bad, I only said that your point was stupid, which it was. Also renewables are largely solar, with some wind, hydro, and geothermal mixed in where appropriate. Solar is everywhere now, and it’s big money because the utilities can buy the power from a solar farm cheaper than they can generate it from fossil fuels.
