The ISS has four main solar arrays, each consisting of multiple panels, which together produce about 84 to 120 kilowatts of power—enough to support the station's life support systems, scientific experiments, and daily operations. Each wing is the largest ever deployed in space, weighing over 1,088 kilograms (2,399 pounds) and using nearly 33,000 solar arrays, each measuring 8-cm square with 4,100 diodes. When fully extended, each is 35 metres (115 ft) in length and 12 metres (39 ft) wide. A solar array's wingspan of 240 feet (73 meters) is longer than a Boeing 777's wingspan, which is 212 feet (65. The roll-out solar arrays augment the International Space Station's eight main solar arrays. They can generate up to 215 kilowatts (215,000 watts) of power to operate the station with the existing solar arrays. An example for your comparison – an active computer and monitor consume.
