2628 accumulators 3118 solar panels 0 8428.
Best solar panel setup factorio.
You need 17 solar panels for each steam engine running at max capacity.
Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
Overall this design has a continuous power rating excluding roboport drain of 8 232mw.
Here is a quite popular blueprintable design by madzuri.
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.
Plop a sub station down and fill it with solar pannels.
There are either 5 36 extra accumulators or 6 38 missing solar panels.
The ideal ratio is 0 84 accumulators panel.
This layout has 170 accumulators and 196 panels.
The optimal ratio is 0 84 thus a more ideal setup would be 21 accumulators to 25 solar panels.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
I don t beleve in perfect ratios for solar.
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.
You can always sacrifice a bit of the optimal ratio for a cleaner design but you should stay in the area of 0 8 0 9.
Keep in mind that these numbers are approximate you may want to have a buffer for laser turrets if nothing else.
Or more precisely you need power consumption in w 30 kw solar panels.
Just add as needed for each.
This so sums up factorio perfectionism and practicalism.
This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.
Looks like 912 accumulators to 16 solar panels which is a 0 560 75 ratio.
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.
For each 5 solar panels you need 3 accumulators.
I leave a space to walk between.
