Here s what it looks like and here s what an array of 32 of them look like together.
Efficient solar panels factorio.
So almost 99 and an accumulator to solar panel ratio of 0 84009.
Default production multiplier 10 100 1000.
It has a space efficiency space taken up by panels and accumulators of 0 9898.
2628 accumulators 3118 solar panels 0 8428.
Adds higher tiers of solar panels and accumulators.
Very close to the ideal of 0 84.

I ve tried to make the most use of empty space by putting panels and accumulators everywhere.
Main reason i don t like solar is the amount of space it takes.
Solar panel efficiency is a measure of how much sunlight that hits the surface area of a solar panel is converted into usable electricity.
If you d like i ve got a symmetrical design here i worked on awhile ago.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
As you can see i rotated half of them to make it symmetrical.
Makes space efficient solar farms viable and reduces the hassle to place as many panels.
Massive fields of blue and grey squares at the fringes of your base.
Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
You can get great efficiency with solar panels and capacitors especially using roboports and blueprints.
It s large scale but it s a great way to ramp up your energy potential.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.

At the moment i m using solar in a fuel saving capacity.
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.
So if a solar panel has an efficiency rating of 15 that means 15 of the sunlight that hits the solar panels will be converted into electricity.
For the record solar panels provide 42kw on average so you need power consumption 42kw solar panels approximately 40 extra not 100 and enough accumulators to store the excess power consumption 42kw 0 84 last edited by alexmbrennan.
Mk1 a mark one is just a bunch of poles with y know solar panels mixed in madzuri nov 2016 mk2 focuses on ratios mk3 uses roboports to construct the tile mk4 uses a diagonal spacing to reduce roboports and ups mk5 makes use of most if not all of the radar range.
This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.
14 substations 373 accumulators and 444 solar panels.
