The upcoming reactor neutrino experiment, KamLAND, has the ability to explorethe Large Mixing Angle (LMA) solution to the solar neutrino problem. Here, weinvestigate the precision to which KamLAND should be able to measure theseparameters, utilizing the distortion of the energy spectrum of reactorneutrinos. Incomplete knowledge of the fuel composition of the reactors willlead to some error on this measurement. We estimate the size of this effect.
