Green Power Equivalency Calculator
Number of American Homes'' Electricity Use For One YearWind Turbines Running For One YearNumber of Football Fields of Solar Powered For One YearMiles Driven by An Electric VehicleThe number of American football fields covered with solar panels is determined by dividing the annual amount of green power procured in kilowatt-hours (kWh) by 1,455,726 kWh, which is the estimated annual electricity output of one football field (including end zones) covered by photovoltaic (PV) solar panels. The factors for this equivalency calcul...See more on epa.gov
