I always use a factor of 1200 as approximation e.g. 1GW produses 1.2 TWh per year but thats very very rough.

Yup, typically I just mentally multiply by 1000 (nice round numbers). But obviously a 100MW farm in the Sahara is going to produce more in a year than the same 100MW farm in Germany. It’d be cool to see a list on a global scale that showed a table and maybe generation vs demand curves for the area they serve. Maybe I’ll put it on my “projects I’ll never get to” list.

Maybe you can get something out of here
