I think that figure neatly sums up the enormous difficulty of the task.
40 kWh is a trivial amount of energy by fossil fuel standards but it is
NOT trivial by solar energy standards. I do not believe there are
many solar-electric installations that can produce 40 kWh even from
noon to 1PM on a clear day. The ones that exist are certainly not cheap!

And all for one lousy gallon of gas.
