How does the land use of different electricity sources compare?

One part of the total land use is the space that a power plant takes up: the area of a coal power plant, or the land covered by solar panels. More land is needed to mine the coal, and dig the metals and minerals used in solar panels out of the ground. To capture the whole picture we compare these footprints based on life-cycle assessments.
