Factorio Solar Panel Setup

Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.

Factorio solar panel setup.

Welcome to a vanilla factorio 0 17. Search the tags for mining smelting and advanced production blueprints. This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle. Join me as i explore 0 17 and try to transition from a single rocket base into a megabase.

You can always sacrifice a bit of the optimal ratio for a cleaner design but you should stay in the area of 0 8 0 9. 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. The combination of solar panels and accumulator will fully use the grid. Its not exact and it changes as i plop down more every so often.

Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution. Though in all honesty you probably aren t ready for solar panels yet if the cost bothers you. Currently i have 38000 solar panels 31000 accumulators and 1700 steam engines. Find blueprints for the video game factorio.

It also contains the. It is a seamless connection to the next part. Oil refinery storage tanks and battery production example. This item will indicate how to control the substation 14 14 grid for oil refinery in factorio download game.

During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw. My setup uses about 75 solar panels for every accumulator. It has the nearly optimal ratio. Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.

Looks like 912 accumulators to 16 solar panels which is a 0 560 75 ratio the optimal ratio is 0 84 thus a more ideal setup would be 21 accumulators to 25 solar panels.
