We found total land-use requirements for solar power plants to have a wide range across technologies. 5 acres/GWh/yr for small 2-axis flat panel. . After discussing solar land-use metrics and our data-collection and analysis methods, we present total and direct land-use results for various solar technologies and system configurations, on both a capacity and an electricity-generation basis. The total area corresponds to all land enclosed by the. . Abstract—The rapid deployment of large numbers of utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) plants in the United States, combined with heightened expectations of future deployment, has raised concerns about land requirements and associated land-use impacts. Yet our understanding of the land requirements of. . Across the 245 million acres of public land it manages, the BLM maintains more than 19 million acres as open for potential solar development, subject to a variance process. As fossil fuels become less competitive and climate change accelerates, developers have also been siting renewable energy projects on public lands, including solar, wind, and geothermal.
