Doesn't it take up too much space for the power you get?

depends what panels were used, 100w or 550w.  Surely we're not going to start complaining about 'space needed' for alternative energy.

 

Anything beats fossil fuel, well, almost.  Wind, Hydro & Solar ... ????????

Did I hear correctly, he said 2.7 GW?

That  would be 2,700 MW = 2,700,000 kW = 2,700,000,000 W

 

Somewhere I read there are 144,417 panels installed. If assumed that 1 panel 1 x 1 m gives approx. 1,000 W (in best case), 144,417 panels x 1,000 W = 144,417,000 W = 144,417 kW = 144.417 MW = 0.144417 GW

 

O yes, he said there are also some hydro turbines, will they produce 2.7 - 0.144 = 2.556 GW = 2,556 MW ?  

The biggest hydropower is Bhumipol Dam, that can bring up with its 8 turbines over 150 m height some 700 MW = 0.7 GW (in best case).   

 

Where did I make a mistake?

Yes he said Gigawatts 

apparently Mr Google says 1GW = 1000000000 watts (100 million watts)

But now, you did make a mistake, it's 1,000 million watts. (10^9 W).  But your 9 zeros were correct, sorry, I have added the commas for better counting...
