A 15 square meter surface area of photovoltaic modules (parking space) generates approx. 3,000 kWh per year. This means that a car with an average consumption of 20 kWh/100 km could cover around 15,000 km per year.
If this calculation is applied to the total potential of 470.6 square kilometers or the actual usable area of 284 square kilometers, it is possible to power around 19 million electric vehicles and cover a distance of 284 billion kilometers.
