If you do the math, it works out to about two 60 watt light bulbs over each of the five 322 sq-ft areas, each about the size of a single car garage. The total electric bill for all of these plots works out to $13,000 total, over the entire period, or $500 per year, $100 per plot per year. The sun’s energy beating on these plots averages about 340 watts per square meter(averaging over a year). The light bulbs, about 4 watts per square meter.
