Factorio Solar Panel Production

Solar panels and accumulator combination.

Factorio solar panel production.

Oil refinery storage tanks and battery production example. Optimal production with my world settings would be 5 10 of both panels and accumulators. Such as the wiki reddit and factorio discord from which this is all based on. The combination of solar panels and accumulator will fully use the grid.

Huge kudos to anyone that can help me out. This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle. Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution. My searching abilities has only gotten images of actual solar farms not factories for producing these two components.

Based on advanced electric mod but toned down. It is a seamless connection to the next part. Default production multiplier 10 100 1000. I only bother with 2 solar panel 2 accumulator assemblers and that s probably overkill.

This is a compendium of the most common factorio facts as of v1 0 release. Two more tiers of solar panels and accumulators. Adds higher tiers of solar panels and accumulators. 3 heat storages based on molten salt technology.

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. Factorio is a game in which you build and maintain factories. Proper handling of oil products. You may find an essay on the subject which outlines the techniques used in this calculator here.

After the initial production to catch up with surpass steam i just limit production via logistics network to 10mw of additional capacity and stamp down more solar panel field blueprints as needed. 4 thermal solar panels that produce heat instead of energy. It has the nearly optimal ratio. Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.

During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw. Features of this calculator include. First tier is 5x power second tier 5x the first. Makes space efficient solar farms viable and reduces the hassle to place as many panels.

0 18 v1 2 2 fixed entity icon graphics v1 2 1 version change for 0 18. This calculator is the result of a few years worth of fooling around off and on with performing calculations using factorio s recipe graph. This is only a sliver of the info available. 3 new steam turbines for mid game.

3 new basic heat exchangers for mid game not intended for nuclear power use a cheaper thermal conduit for early game. Redid graphics and technology structure and costs. A huge thanks to to all the contributors on github as well as the community who made the previous cheat sheets and other resources.
