Facotrio Solar Panel Layout

Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.

Facotrio solar panel layout.

Though in all honesty you probably aren t ready for solar panels yet if the cost bothers you. I don t beleve in perfect ratios for solar. Factorio solar panel layout what we can do. Just add as needed for each.

Three types of energy solutions fall into the category of renewable energy factorio solar panel layout energy hydro energy and wind energy solutions. When you fill in this 22x18 area with panels and accumulators it looks like this. During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw. Note your roboports will be closer together here which isn t necessarily a bad thing depending on your base.

There are either 5 36 extra accumulators or 6 38 missing solar panels. This so sums up factorio perfectionism and practicalism. But the ratio is off it s 26 accumulators and 32 panels for a ratio of 0 8125. This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.

The ideal ratio is 0 84 accumulators panel. 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. 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. Something to consider is that many people like replacing a solar panel with a radar in.

Plop a sub station down and fill it with solar pannels. I leave a space to walk between. This layout has 170 accumulators and 196 panels. Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.

Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night. This way solar panels can spill over two of the sides making each substation cover effectively a 22x18 area rather than 18x18.
