Is there information available on recent solar panel experiments ?

Question

What area of solar paneling is required to produce 1kw of electrical energy?

Answer 1

I don't know what experiments you are talking about.

Solar panels are a commercial product, and not an experiment.

rule of thumb: 10 watts per square ft, so that comes to 100 square ft.
