My searching abilities has only gotten images of actual solar farms not factories for producing these two components.
Factorio solar panel production.
A huge thanks to to all the contributors on github as well as the community who made the previous cheat sheets and other resources.
Factorio is a game in which you build and maintain factories.
First tier is 5x power second tier 5x the first.
Solar panels and accumulator combination.
Redid graphics and technology structure and costs.
Adds higher tiers of solar panels and accumulators.
1 salt evaporation pond to create salt for heat storages.
Default production multiplier 10 100 1000.
This calculator is the result of a few years worth of fooling around off and on with performing calculations using factorio s recipe graph.
Based on advanced electric mod but toned down.
Makes space efficient solar farms viable and reduces the hassle to place as many panels.
Two more tiers of solar panels and accumulators.
Features of this calculator include.
Oil refinery storage tanks and battery production example.
I only bother with 2 solar panel 2 accumulator assemblers and that s probably overkill.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
It is a seamless connection to the next part.
You may find an essay on the subject which outlines the techniques used in this calculator here.
During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw.
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.
0 18 v1 2 2 fixed entity icon graphics v1 2 1 version change for 0 18.
3 new steam turbines for mid game.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
Optimal production with my world settings would be 5 10 of both panels and accumulators.
3 new basic heat exchangers for mid game not intended for nuclear power use a cheaper thermal conduit for early game.
After the initial production to catch up with surpass steam i just limit production via logistics network to 10mw of additional capacity and stamp down more solar panel field blueprints as needed.
This is only a sliver of the info available.
3 heat storages based on molten salt technology.
This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.
The combination of solar panels and accumulator will fully use the grid.
This is a compendium of the most common factorio facts as of v1 0 release.
Huge kudos to anyone that can help me out.
Such as the wiki reddit and factorio discord from which this is all based on.
It has the nearly optimal ratio.
4 thermal solar panels that produce heat instead of energy.
