re: Algae farming

And if Algae farming is next to power plant and addition to solar energy, it provides artificial light during the night to boost algae production. It can function like a battery- using power from plant plant in non peak hours. It gets this power at lower price, and it gets more production from the same amount of infrastructure costs.

I wonder what best in terms of power of solar energy per sq meter in regards to algae production- what it's growth rate in low light levels as compared "noon" daylight and 2 or 3 times this [2000 or 3000 watts per sq meter].
