Just divide if you need a decimal.
Solar panel accumulator ratio factorio.
In the perfect ratio it gives you 42kw per solar cell for 0 resources amortized over time.
We could do that the other way around.
Solar is the ultimate in resource to power ratio.
If they don t last the night build more batteries.
Now you have enough for a while.
While the sun is out your solar panels have to output q power where q p.
Anyway here s the source.
The accumulator can store up to 5 mj of energy.
Every other power source requires a constant influx of resources to produce power.
The ratio 100 solar panels to 84 accumulators is optimized for solar panels first than for accumulators.
It takes 23 8 solar panels to operate 1 mw of factory and charge 20 accumulators to sustain that 1 mw through the night.
Solar panels are producing 0 nominal power 10 of the day.
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.
Reverse operation ratio from decimal needs multiplication and reduction by the largest common divisor.
A single solar panel outputs an average of 42 kw over a day and requires 0 84 accumulators to sustain a constant power output through the night.
Dusk dawn so on average they produce 70 of nominal power.
Provide power p recharge accumulators.
Then when both of those are met build some more.
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.
A single solar panel outputs an average of 42 kw over a day and requires 0 84 accumulators to sustain a constant power output through the night.
You see with solar there is some initial investment but after that power is simply free.
If connected to a circuit network an accumulator will output its level of charge as an integer from 0 to 100 to a specified signal.
The b accumulator b stores a limited amount of energy when available production exceeds demand and releases it in the opposite case.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
Its maximum charge discharge rate is 300 kw.
We would need the fewest accumulators if we would just draw power from them if solar panels would produce no power at all.
Your solar panels have 2 functions.
The amount of solar panels and accumulators you need is more.
Night solar panels are producing 50 nominal power 40 of the day.
The ratio doesn t matter nearly as much as people seem to think it does.
