A square foot is about 10 times maler area than a square meter. The exact conversion factor is 0.09290304. So solar watt per square meter, or m2 will be about ten times more. Solar photovotlaic panels that have area efficiecny or power density of 13.5 watt per square foot will have 145 .3 watt per square meter (W/m2). One that has 10 watt per sq ft will have 107.6 watt per square meter (W/m2) The artcile does not mention about conversion of the sq ft unit of measure to the international and European standard – square meter, sq.m. or m2.
