Factorio Optimal Solar Layout

I don t beleve in perfect ratios for solar.

Factorio optimal solar layout.

Furnace starting setup a simple compact smelting block suitable for the beginning of the game. This factorio 0 15 workshop covers a solar layout design by zarklord. 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. Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.

And there you go an optimal real system of solar panels and accumulators for any network. I leave a space to walk between. Have a browse through the images for design ideas or download the designs from the blueprint book section at the end. Just add as needed for each.

That is why that electrical grid uses 8 solar panels and 6 accumulators. Using n s 8 in the second equation n a is calculated at 5 62 which rounds up to 6. 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. For a radar n s is calculated at 7 14 which rounds up to 8.

Though in all honesty you probably aren t ready for solar panels yet if the cost bothers you. 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.
