Did you mean MW rather than MWh?




Yea mixed up my units in a couple places. Should be:

- Solar: 1–2 MW of average power; ~24–48 MWh of energy per day.

- Diesel: about 60 MW of mechanical power while underway; ~1,440 MWh of energy per day.


60 MWh continuously means inf MW.

60 MWh continuous is nonsense because its a unit of energy, 60 MWh per hour is just 60 megawatts, 60 MWh per second however is 216 gigawatts.
