Factorio Optimal Solar Layout

I don t beleve in perfect ratios for solar.

Factorio optimal solar layout.

Though in all honesty you probably aren t ready for solar panels yet if the cost bothers you. And there you go an optimal real system of solar panels and accumulators for any network. This factorio 0 15 workshop covers a solar layout design by zarklord. Furnace starting setup a simple compact smelting block suitable for the beginning of the game.

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. This so sums up factorio perfectionism and practicalism. Just add as needed for each. Have a browse through the images for design ideas or download the designs from the blueprint book section at the end.

Now that factorio 1 0 has released i felt it s time to get back in the game to fix the old designs and maybe make something new. Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio. That is why that electrical grid uses 8 solar panels and 6 accumulators. For a radar n s is calculated at 7 14 which rounds up to 8.

Using n s 8 in the second equation n a is calculated at 5 62 which rounds up to 6. Plop a sub station down and fill it with solar pannels.
