Or more precisely you need power consumption in w 30 kw solar panels.
Factorio solar panel accumulator layout.
This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.
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.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
Subreddit for the game factorio made by wube software.
This layout has 170 accumulators and 196 panels.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
After the initial production to catch up with surpass steam i just limit production via logistics network to 10mw of additional capacity and stamp down more solar panel field blueprints as needed.
There are either 5 36 extra accumulators or 6 38 missing solar panels.
This is a 25 21 0 84 ratio solar panel accumulator layout that i came up with and i didn t see it posted anywhere so i wanted to share it with the community.
In general this is a technique which works well when you ve just researched accumulators and solar panels but don t have enough resources to build big solar farms and accumulator farms yet.
Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
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.
Something to consider is that many people like replacing a solar panel with a radar in order to get the coverage needed to deal with blueprints from map mode.
For each 5 solar panels you need 3 accumulators.
But the ratio is off it s 26 accumulators and 32 panels for a ratio of 0 8125.
Press j to jump to the feed.
During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw.
This way solar panels can spill over two of the sides making each substation cover effectively a 22x18 area rather than 18x18.
I only bother with 2 solar panel 2 accumulator assemblers and that s probably overkill.
Reduced collision box of big electric pole to allow squeezing between it and an accumulator.
Now connectible to the circuit network.
When you fill in this 22x18 area with panels and accumulators it looks like this.
Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts.
The ideal ratio is 0 84 accumulators panel.
