Solar panel max output.
Solar panel accumulator ratio.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
Night solar panels are producing 50 nominal power 40 of the day.
So for 2 1mw this works out to 50 solar panels and 42 accumulators exactly.
The amount of solar panels and accumulators you need is more.
While the sun is out your solar panels have to output q power where q p.
If your batteries can t fully charge during the day build more solar.
Dusk dawn so on average they produce 70 of nominal power.
Reduced collision box of big electric pole to allow squeezing between it and an accumulator.
I calculated it in two ways.
Provide power p recharge accumulators.
If they don t last the night build more batteries.
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.
During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw.
If there is variance than you need to know what the greatest possible drain over the timespan from beginning of dusk to end of dawn is i e.
Now connectible to the circuit network.
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.
Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
10 mj from 5 as far as i know the length of the day hasn t changed.
Take the current ratio of 0 84 and multiply it by 100 60 5 10 which gets me 0 7.
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.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
Entire timespan that solar panels are not producing 100 energy will be.
Now you have enough for a while.
100kw from 60 accumulator capacity.
Alternatively this works out to a ratio of 25 solar panels to 21 accumulators.
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.
K2 changed the power output of panels and capacity of accumulators.
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.
Then when both of those are met build some more.
