panel = 40 m^2 sunlight = 1370 W/m^2

So some amount less than 50 kW. Maybe about 2x photonicinduction garden light bulbs, or a few dozen normal streetlights. Seems like about the right amount to light up a very small town.

But it makes me wonder why anyone would choose to settle in an area which is in shadow 1/4 of the time. Why found a city there?
