Factorio Solar Panel Accumulator Layout
1 logistic network tilable.
Factorio solar panel accumulator layout. There are either 5 36 extra accumulators or 6 38 missing solar panels. Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution. It as a space efficiency of 96 5 3 5 of the tiles used by the roboport and the substations are not used by solar panel and or accumulators and an accumulator solar panel ratio of 0 84. Or more precisely you need power consumption in w 30 kw solar panels.
Its maximum charge discharge rate is 300 kw. 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. I had found that a ratio of 1 2 to 1 5 accumulators per solar panel worked out perfectly fine. Press j to jump to the feed.
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. Keep in mind that these numbers are approximate you may want to have a buffer for laser turrets if nothing else. During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw. 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.
The ideal ratio is 0 84 accumulators panel. 2224 96 5 solar panels. 48x48 2304 tiles usefull area. For each 5 solar panels you need 3 accumulators.
The accumulator can store up to 5 mj of energy. Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio. If connected to a circuit network an accumulator will output its level of charge as an integer from 0 to 100 to a specified signal. Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
You need 17 solar panels for each steam engine running at max capacity. The accumulator stores a limited amount of energy when available production exceeds demand and releases it in the opposite case. The number of accumulators divided by the number of solar panels. The first calculation is your accu solar ratio.
Overall this design has a continuous power rating excluding roboport drain of 8 232mw. Subreddit for the game factorio made by wube software. This layout has 170 accumulators and 196 panels. Something to consider is that many people like replacing a solar panel with a radar in.
