We assume that your roof is like most residential roofs encountered in north america a pitched roof over plywood decking on a wood rafter truss system.
Optimal factorio solar panel layout.
Remember if you don t have enough solar panels things simply don t run as fast but if you don t have enough capacitors your entire base will shut down at night which can and will kill you in the right circumstances.
Also there are more capacitors than panels because capacitors are far more important.
In this post we will go through the basics of solar panel layout to accurately determining how many panels will fit on your roof.
Just add as needed for each.
This is a 25 21 0 84 ratio solar panel accumulator layout that i came up with and i didn t see it posted anywhere so i wanted to share it with the community.

Subreddit for the game factorio made by wube software.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
I don t beleve in perfect ratios for solar.
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.
I leave a space to walk between.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
This so sums up factorio perfectionism and practicalism.
The build has the perfect ratio of solar panels to accumulators is nearly symmetrical and tilable.
Factorio solar panel layout what we can do.
Plop a sub station down and fill it with solar pannels.
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.
With the world slowly moving to the much dreaded energy crisis it is important that we reduce our dependency on non renewable sources of energy.
This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.
The basics of solar panel layout.
Three types of energy solutions fall into the category of renewable energy factorio solar panel layout energy hydro energy and wind energy solutions.
During daylight hours every panel provides the maximum power level 60kw.
