MWh? That can’t be right, that’s too low (although I appreciate the numbers for reference)
The US DOE says about 16 TWh which sounds more reasonable for a population of ~11 million.
2GW times 24 hours time 365 days times a capacity factor of 20 percent is an annual production of 3.5 TWh so the planned solar farms would cover about 20 percent of annual usage
No idea why the numbers are so different. The numbers I found were 120 GWh (not MWh, it was a typo). But that is still significantly less than the us doe estimate.
For reference, cuba’s energy consumption is about 120
