Total solar power available, across all satellites from all operators. Nameplate capacity, not actual usage.
Based on industry reports and my best efforts at research; suggestions for reliable sources are welcome, hopefully there will be a clean resolution source we can track well before resolution time. Presumably some classified satellites will be hard to get data on; best guesses will be used if they matter.
