During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw.
Accumulator to solar panel ratio factorio.
Solar panels are producing 0 nominal power 10 of the day.
Its maximum charge discharge rate is 300 kw.
The ratio doesn t matter nearly as much as people seem to think it does.
Your solar panels have 2 functions.
Dusk dawn so on average they produce 70 of nominal power.
If your batteries can t fully charge during the day build more solar.
Night solar panels are producing 50 nominal power 40 of the day.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
The correct ratio is 0 84 so 100 panels 84 accumulators will keep 24 hour supply of the appropriate power.
Alternatively this works out to a ratio of 25 solar panels to 21 accumulators.
Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
Then when both of those are met build some more.
Or we can say we need 21 25 0 84 accumulators per solar panel.
Or we can say we need 25 solar panels per 21 accumulators.
This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.
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.
Now you have enough for a while.
While the sun is out your solar panels have to output q power where q p.
So for 2 1mw this works out to 50 solar panels and 42 accumulators exactly.
With 11k accumulators i get about 75 drain.
My factory uses 350mw.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
So the op post is 100 accurate.
If they don t last the night build more batteries.
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.
7 280 accumulators is 66 of my current amount.
Provide power p recharge accumulators.
500 21 p mw solar panels 20 p mw accumulators these are the numbers i use.
But i can only afford to lose 25 of my accumulators based on current usage which means that a ratio of 0 8 accumulators to 1 solar.
The accumulator can store up to 5 mj of energy.
The amount of solar panels and accumulators you need is more.
9 100 solar panels vs 0 8 ratio 7 280 accumulators would that power my factory overnight.
