Factorio Optimal Solar Layout

Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.

Factorio optimal solar layout.

Using n s 8 in the second equation n a is calculated at 5 62 which rounds up to 6. For a radar n s is calculated at 7 14 which rounds up to 8. The build has the perfect ratio of solar panels to accumulators is nearly symmetrical and tilable. Just add as needed for each.

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. 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. Have a browse through the images for design ideas or download the designs from the blueprint book section at the end. This factorio 0 15 workshop covers a solar layout design by zarklord.

This so sums up factorio perfectionism and practicalism. 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. I don t beleve in perfect ratios for solar.

Plop a sub station down and fill it with solar pannels. I leave a space to walk between.
