1.1l/h/m2 ? That means 25m2 generate 27.5l/h so 660l a day. That's huge.

You're assuming full production for 24 hours a day, I don't think that's likely. Maybe 8 hours of full production a day under optimal conditions? Still, ~200 liters a day of potable water seems quite big for a 5x5 area of solar panels.

Yeah, my bad. Your estimate seems more likely.
