Do the solar panels act to minimize the drain on the power usage of the generator.
Empyrium solar panel.
Is there a solar battery i am supposed to place too.
So if your panels are enough you won t use any fuel.
Plz remember this is a beta game.
This means in order to make a base sustainable you re looking at a maximum of 300kw of consumption.
What gave you that idea.
You can combine solar and generators and the solar gets used first.
You do know they also upped the number of solar capsulaters the things that generate power from solar panels to 5 or 6.
Which means you can pull more energy out of each solar panel in mp sp.

Generators do still need a fuel tank and battery power overflow does not get stored as fuel.
It must be paired with the capacitor solar to store the energy absorbed by the blocks.
Solar panel blocks are blocks used as an alternate source of power.
The best way to make use of solar energy is to set up device grouping in the control panel.
They might also up the amount of solar panels at a later date.
You can help empyrion.

As a guide each panel can produce 50 60kw of power so you can produce up to about 1mw of power.
Which might explain the limit.
Also solar panels won t work if you have a generator in your base.
