An acre-foot is 1.233X10^6 liters. So 1.233X10^6 liters/acre-foot divided by 285 L/kWh is 4326 kWh/acre-foot. Checks out.

- ncmncm 4y agoWhile building out the 6 GW, every increment on the way would be incrementally more useful. Start with a 100 MW array and desalinate with that, and just keep adding to it until you are desalinating "enough". I think California announced that shading existing canals with solar, besides cutting millions of gallons of evaporation, would generate 12 GW. But investors really, really want to put all the panels out in deserts.
