Solar Steel

  • Global steel production - 2000 million tons per year [1]. 1000 tons of solar steel are possible per acre, or 1 million tons per 1000 acres (nominal square mile). Global steel production can be replaced with under 2000 square miles allocated to solar steel. The Sahara is 3.5M square miles, for reference [2]. Thus, less than 1/10th of a percent of the Sahara can produce the World's steel. The US used to produce 50% of the world's steel, now China does most of the steel production - [3]
  • Yes, under 0.1% of Sahara. But, there is not enough scrap steel to replace all current production - https://chatgpt.com/share/69e578c7-67ac-83ea-9866-0b5845f3eb59
