Or more precisely you need power consumption in w 30 kw solar panels.
Solar panel factorio layout.
I can create one myself but it would be so large inefficient and messy so i m looking for some ideas for a nice compact layout.
The optimal ratio is 0 84 21 25 accumulators per solar panel and 23 8 solar panels per megawatt required by your factory this ratio accounts for solar panels needed to charge the accumulators this means that you need 1 428 mw of production of solar panels and 100mj of storage to provide 1 mw of power over one day night cycle.
Subreddit for the game factorio made by wube software.
The ideal ratio is 0 84 accumulators panel.
Keep in mind that these numbers are approximate you may want to have a buffer for laser turrets if nothing else.
Note your roboports will be closer together here which isn t necessarily a bad thing depending on your base.
Something to consider is that many people like replacing a solar panel with a radar in.
As for which to actually pick i d say it s up to your preference cilya s design with accumulators instead of a roboport is the only one with perfect 0 86 ratio among popular designs used by factorio players.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
We assume that your roof is like most residential roofs encountered in north america a pitched roof over plywood decking on a wood rafter truss system.
There are either 5 36 extra accumulators or 6 38 missing solar panels.
Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
For each 5 solar panels you need 3 accumulators.
This tutorial covers solar panel arrangements to use at various stages of the game including the building of the massive ratio perfect array from this foru.
I ve been searching half the night for a nice layout to use to manufacture solar panels in an efficient manner but i haven t yet found any at all.
In this post we will go through the basics of solar panel layout to accurately determining how many panels will fit on your roof.
This layout has 170 accumulators and 196 panels.
You need 17 solar panels for each steam engine running at max capacity.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
The basics of solar panel layout.
Haven t seen this design posted anywhere so here is yet another 0 15 solar panel layout this solar panel layout has a roboport only uses 4 substations has the exact 0 84 ratio 84 accumulators 100 solar panels and is symettrical.
Overall this design has a continuous power rating excluding roboport drain of 8 232mw.
