All other sources of energy combined are utterly insignificant compared to the SunLuis Batalha: Yesterday’s eclipse stopped roughly 10²⁰ J of solar energy from reaching Earth.That’s ~1 year of global electricity generation!1,400 W/m² of sunlight× 10¹³ m² (Moon-sized shadow)× ~3 hours (Time Shadow Crossed Earth)≈ 10²⁰ J
