Factorio Solar Panel Production

This is only a sliver of the info available.

Factorio solar panel production.

4 thermal solar panels that produce heat instead of energy. Two more tiers of solar panels and accumulators. Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio. Solar panels and accumulator combination.

Oil refinery storage tanks and battery production example. Factorio is a game in which you build and maintain factories. Huge kudos to anyone that can help me out. First tier is 5x power second tier 5x the first.

0 18 v1 2 2 fixed entity icon graphics v1 2 1 version change for 0 18. This calculator is the result of a few years worth of fooling around off and on with performing calculations using factorio s recipe graph. My searching abilities has only gotten images of actual solar farms not factories for producing these two components. Proper handling of oil products.

A huge thanks to to all the contributors on github as well as the community who made the previous cheat sheets and other resources. It has the nearly optimal ratio. The combination of solar panels and accumulator will fully use the grid. Optimal production with my world settings would be 5 10 of both panels and accumulators.

Redid graphics and technology structure and costs. You may find an essay on the subject which outlines the techniques used in this calculator here. It is a seamless connection to the next part. Makes space efficient solar farms viable and reduces the hassle to place as many panels.

Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution. 3 new basic heat exchangers for mid game not intended for nuclear power use a cheaper thermal conduit for early game. Default production multiplier 10 100 1000. Features of this calculator include.

3 heat storages based on molten salt technology. Designing production lines is a huge headache for me so i enjoy finding schematics of proven effective designs and building them. This is a compendium of the most common factorio facts as of v1 0 release. Based on advanced electric mod but toned down.

Adds higher tiers of solar panels and 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. Such as the wiki reddit and factorio discord from which this is all based on. During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw.

This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle. 1 salt evaporation pond to create salt for heat storages. I only bother with 2 solar panel 2 accumulator assemblers and that s probably overkill.
