To sustain same 100 mw factory you d need 100 m 60 k 1 667 solar panels.
Factorio solar panels to accumulators.
Essentially you are saying only deliver power to these systems if i have enough to spare and even then don t exceed this delivery rate.
During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw.
The ratios posted result in more solar panels then are needed to power factory and charge accumulators i had posted this in a topic on the steam forum a week ago when somebody was asking about solar panels and another person brought up the 0 8 1 ratio.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
First tier is 5x power second tier 5x the first.
I had found that a ratio of 1 2 to 1 5 accumulators per solar panel worked out perfectly fine.
I would like to set up a set of solar panels for use in the daytime then another set that would be used at night.
Even if you consider 10 oil being worth 1 copper or iron ore personally i consider oil free like water since it is.
The solar panels like the steam engines are no longer relied upon to power the factory.

4 000 accumulators would need 4 000 5 20 000 additional solar panels to charge at full 300 kw speed but luckily we have 200 full daylight seconds to recharge so you ll do.
Redid graphics and technology structure and costs.
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.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
Accumulators are way cheaper than solar panels.
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.
Based on advanced electric mod but toned down.
There is no way we will save more than two accumulators with each additional solar panel.
Two more tiers of solar panels and accumulators.
Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
The role of the accumulators changes to indicate when i need to feed the reactors.
Solar panels use more than twice the amount of space than accumulators.
How many solar panels does it take to charge an accumulator in 1 day.
I am new to factorio.
Lastly there has to be a surplus of solar power to recharge those accumulators during day.
