I can create one myself but it would be so large inefficient and messy so i m looking for some ideas for a nice compact layout.
Solar panel factorio layout.
During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw.
Or more precisely you need power consumption in w 30 kw solar panels.
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.
Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.
Note your roboports will be closer together here which isn t necessarily a bad thing depending on your base.
This layout has 170 accumulators and 196 panels.
There are either 5 36 extra accumulators or 6 38 missing solar panels.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
Keep in mind that these numbers are approximate you may want to have a buffer for laser turrets if nothing else.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
Subreddit for the game factorio made by wube software.
You need 17 solar panels for each steam engine running at max capacity.
Overall this design has a continuous power rating excluding roboport drain of 8 232mw.
The ideal ratio is 0 84 accumulators panel.
For each 5 solar panels you need 3 accumulators.
In this post we will go through the basics of solar panel layout to accurately determining how many panels will fit on your roof.
Though in all honesty you probably aren t ready for solar panels yet if the cost bothers you.
I ve been searching half the night for a nice layout to use to manufacture solar panels in an efficient manner but i haven t yet found any at all.
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.
The basics of solar panel layout.
Something to consider is that many people like replacing a solar panel with a radar in.
