Back to the Future Energy Concepts

Marty and Doc discuss the challenge of generating 1.21 gigawatts of power needed to return to 1985. Plutonium is unavailable in 1955, leaving Marty stuck. They discover a lightning strike scheduled for next Saturday, which they plan to harness to power the time machine and send Marty back to the future.

What is the main challenge in generating 1.21 gigawatts of power in 1955?
