How to use solar panels factorio.
You have billions and billions of solar panels.

In this beginner s guide we re going to be looking at how to use robots to set up solar power.
Kilowatts can be directly converted to gj h.
Dawn or dusk 5000 60 s.
Day 12500 60 s.
60 kw 60 0 0036 0 216 gj h.
During the day solar panels produce energy that is used to power your factory.
Portable solar panels can be used to slowly recharge energy shields out of combat but are nearly useless for personal laser defense or exoskeleton even with a large number of batteries.
Since we need 10 gj h 10 gj h 0 216 gj h panel 46 3 panels since we can t have a partial solar panel we round up to 47.
Any excess is used to charge accumulators until they are charged fully.
This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.
Any after that is lost.
Night 2500 60 s and the default.
If you use the layout shown in katherine s guide and other places this utilises 180 solar panels and 151 accumulators to provide approximately 10mw per block day and night.
Welcome to this tutorial video for factorio 2016 steam release version 12 26.
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.
During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw.
Barring some sort of weird mishap like a brown out or biters cutting power solar panels and accumulators work differently depending upon what time it is in game.
One solar panel provides.
Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
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.
Solar power 60 kw.
Accumulator energy 5 mj 5000 kj gives the optimal ratio of 0 84 accumulators per solar panel.
The correct ratio is 0 84 so 100 panels 84 accumulators will keep 24 hour supply of the appropriate power.
Learn a simple way to make it a backup pow.
Portable solar panels are the basic power generating units for modular armor and the spidertron they provide only a small amount of power and only during the daytime.
