Goku had a photovolatic array that could produce nearly 9,000 kW of power. In the desert it produced over that amount. ;)

DBZ, power level Vegeta reads off Goku using scouter. His surprise was because saiyans weren't used to beings (earthlings, in this case) being able to raise their power level, particularly with concentrated attacks like kamehameha. And 9,000 is really, really low compared to power levels that Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, etc all get to. Really low bar, 9,000.

Tracking monocrystalline panels topping 27% efficiency. If they heat wicked them and used collimators, 45%.
Of course it's just a silly game, the little runt could burn up all the energy on the plant matching solar output in unity.
And it would burn out in about a week.

45% is a hell of a lot better than the ones I got play with. Although weather was not a problem for my arrays....

It's Goku and he can magically repel FOD so the objective stays optically clear forever! :p

Awesome. I'm cool because I know this is from DBZ. I remember that episode!
