17. California has an excess of energy generated by Solar panels. The energy falling from the Sun is 1000W/m2 . The efficiency of Solar panels is roughly 15% at this time. The idea has been proposed to pump water from the Colorado river to Lake Mead during the day, and to generate electricity using Hoover Dam and its generators at night. The height gain is 1200m. What is the required area of Solar panels to generate 1 GW of electricity
