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.
Solar panel accumulator ratio.
Reduced collision box of big electric pole to allow squeezing between it and an accumulator.
The ratios posted result in more solar panels then are needed to power factory and charge accumulators i had posted this in a topic on the steam forum a week ago when somebody was asking about solar panels and another person brought up the 0 8 1 ratio.
K2 changed the power output of panels and capacity of accumulators.
So for 2 1mw this works out to 50 solar panels and 42 accumulators exactly.
Now you have enough for a while.
Solar panel max output.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.
500 21 p mw solar panels 20 p mw accumulators these are the numbers i use.
Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
Now connectible to the circuit network.
Solar panels are producing 0 nominal power 10 of the day.
100kw from 60 accumulator capacity.
If they don t last the night build more batteries.
Alternatively this works out to a ratio of 25 solar panels to 21 accumulators.
Entire timespan that solar panels are not producing 100 energy will be.
The amount of solar panels and accumulators you need is more.
Take the current ratio of 0 84 and multiply it by 100 60 5 10 which gets me 0 7.
During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw.
Dusk dawn so on average they produce 70 of nominal power.
If your power draw is constant then the optimal ratio is 25 solar panels to 21 accumulators.
10 mj from 5 as far as i know the length of the day hasn t changed.
Your solar panels have 2 functions.
I had found that a ratio of 1 2 to 1 5 accumulators per solar panel worked out perfectly fine.
Then when both of those are met build some more.
I calculated it in two ways.
The ratio doesn t matter nearly as much as people seem to think it does.
Provide power p recharge accumulators.
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.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
While the sun is out your solar panels have to output q power where q p.
