Accumulator to solar panel ratio

Solar panel to accumulator ratio? : r/factorio

The amount of solar panels and accumulators you need is more. The ratio doesn''t matter nearly as much as people seem to think it does. If your batteries can''t fully charge during the day, build more solar. If they don''t last the night, build more batteries. The perfect ratio is 0.84 accumulators per solar panel. Reply

Solar panel to accumulator ratio? :: Factorio General Discussions

The ratio 25:21 solar panel to accumulators others have pointed out is accurate and is the optimal ratio. One other important thing to keep in mind is that only 70% of the solar panels power will be available for use by your factory so each can

Accumulator

In general this is a technique which works well when you''ve just researched accumulators and solar panels, but don''t have enough resources to build big solar farms and accumulator farms yet. History. 0.13.3: Reduced collision box of big electric pole to allow squeezing between it and an accumulator. 0.13.0: Now connectible to the circuit network.

Help with solar panel to accumulator ratio in Krastorio 2 plus

= 2,846 accumulators / solar panel. Following the math from this forum thread with the values you gave I found a ratio of exactly 2.8 accumulators per solar panel, pretty close to what you got and yeah, wildly different from vanilla.

Accumulator / Solar panel ratio

But that''s a ratio of 20:21 panels:accumulators, not ~21:25, and something is wrong, and it has to be something in this paragraph. You''ll switch between solar panels and accumulators as your solar panel output crosses the threshold of the power you actually need. Also the amount of power your solar panels can produce is of course

Accumulator / Solar panel ratio

DaveMcW wrote:accumulator_ratio = 70 * solar_panel_power / accumulator_energy For example, using vanilla values: 70 * 60,000 / 5,000,000 = 0.84 If you are a nerd who likes units to match, the constant is 70 seconds. Does this ratio mean 1 solar panel to 0,84 accu or 1 accu to 0,84 solar panel. This always confused me.

Simple solar power blueprint : r/factorio

It has a reasonably good accumulator-to-solar-panel ratio, and can be repeated sideways. The ideal vanilla ratio is 0.84. When not repeated at all, the ratio is 70:84 ~= 0.83. When repeating this blueprint in a long row, the accumulator-to-solar-panel ratio drops a little bit to 68:84 ~= 0.81, since 2 accumulators become shared among each block.

Solar Power in Space Age

So a value of 0.847 means you have to build 0.847 accumulators for 1 solar panel or 847 accumulators for every 1000 solar panels. If one want a single one-to-rule-them-all layout for all planets and qualities, just build one with a 2.117 acc/panel ratio and upgrade however you please. This is very time efficient for the player, but a

Flexible equation for accumulator/solar pannel ratio

Hi, thank you for your answer Furyofstars. 1.05 is coherent with my logic. I consider the following: The solar accumulator must be able to hold a charge equal to to the average output of the solar panel multiplied by the time of the night.

Accumulator / Solar panel ratio

A couple weeks ago I embarked on a quest to find the lowest number of accumulators and solar panels necessary to keep a given circuit operational continuously. Long story short: Rc = Rate of energy consumption by the circuit in kJ Rp = Rate of energy production by solar panels in kJ = Ceiling( Rc / 42 ) * 60

Plop down a solar panel, accumulator, and some small draw on a separate electric system. #3. 332Balu. Mar 3, 2016 @ 10:23am 100 solar panels to 84 accumulators. That''s the ratio most people on the forums use and used for a long time, works pretty well for me as well. #4. Robbyroy. Mar 3, 2016 @ 10:42am Thanks #5

Solar panel

It takes 23.8 solar panels to operate 1 MW of factory and charge 20 accumulators to sustain that 1 MW through the night. The optimal ratio for solar power to charge enough accumulators is 21 accumulators for 25 solar panels (supplying 42kw per solar panel.)

Accumulator / Solar panel ratio

solar panels to 84 accumulators ratio is the best way to go as long as you have relatively constant power consumption and you don''t want to build more than you really need. Mods: Shortcuts for 1.1, ick''s Sea Block, ick''s vanilla tweaks Tools: Atom language pack

Accumulator / Solar panel ratio

So, go the other direction and build more solar panels to preserve the ratio? Following that ''ideal'' ratio, I would need 13,750 solar panels for my 11k accumulators But, the 9.1k solar panels puts out 547MW while my factory only uses 350MW and they can fully charge the accumulators in 3/4 of the daytime. So, that ''ideal'' ratio is not so ideal.

How many batteries per Solarpanel? :: Factorio New Players

I used to have a plan that 16 solar panels to 12 accumulators. That was pretty close (4:3) to the ratio they recommend. In general, just do a bit more solar than accumulators and you should be fine. Last edited by Warlord; Jun 14, 2017 @

Factorio solar panel ratio guide

Calculating all different factors in the game, we can average the solar panel ratio to be 0.84 accumulators per solar panel. Overall your factory will require 23.8 solar panels per megawatt, so you can quickly calculate how many should you need to set up. For example, if your factory requires 20 MW of power to run, you can easily calculate that

Solar Panel/Accumulator Ratio? : r/Dyson_Sphere_Program

A single solar panel generates 360 kw during normal full sun operation. An Accumulator has a maximum in/out charge rate of 600 kw at a time. So the most balanced ratio is 3:5, three accumulators for every 5 solar panels. But you can also get away with a simple 1:2, one accumulator for every 2 panels if you don''t feel like being that fiddly.

Space Exploration Solar Power Calculator : r/factorio

I was looking at all the factors affecting the solar panel to accumulator ratio for space exploration, and decided to make a combinator calculator to work it out for me. Inputs are on the left, from top to bottom: - Accumulator used: signal value of one. - Solar Panel used: signal strength of one.

How to calculate Solar Panel/Accumulator ratio : r/factorio

There are 2 periods of time where both panels and accumulators provide power (when solar power drops below P untill full night and when day starts untill solar power >P). During those 2 periods solar panels + accumulators provide P power. Accummulators have to provide a maximum of P power, never Q power.

Is the ratio of solar panels to accumulators in Krastorio 2 0.7?

K2 changed the power output of panels and capacity of accumulators: Solar panel max output: 100kW (from 60) Accumulator capacity: 10 MJ (from 5) As far as I know, the length of the day hasn''t changed. I calculated it in two ways: Way 1: Take the current ratio of 0.84, and multiply it by 100/60 * 5/10, which gets me 0.7

6 FAQs about [Accumulator to solar panel ratio]

How many accumulators do you need for solar power?

The optimal ratio for solar power to charge enough accumulators is 21 accumulators for 25 solar panels (supplying 42 kW per solar panel). Produce more than 10 GJ per hour using only solar panels. Win the game without building any solar panels.

What is the best solar panel to accumulator ratio?

Best solar panel to accumulator ratio? : r/factorio Best solar panel to accumulator ratio? 21 accumulators for 25 solar panels 21/25=0.84 note, having a bit more storage than production is a better idea than the reverse. particularly if you want to develop a steam back-up system. that's because accuminalators are cheaper than solar panels.

How many accumulator for 20 solar panel?

Except that the ratio 20:21 is the other way round : an accumulator provides less power during the night (mean 40kw) than a solar panel provides to the factory (mean 42kw) so, you must have more accumulator to balance that. That is 21 accumulator for 20 solar panel. (5%) by DerivePi » Fri Aug 29, 2014 7:32 pm Verified. Well done!

When do solar accumulators start to output power?

The accumulators starts to output power when the solar panels output falls below P. Since their output power falls linearly from P' to 0 in time t3, the time during which the accumulator output is growing is t3 * P/P'. Thus we have that the energy E_acc restored during the night is

Can accumulators be charged up with solar panels at night?

Accumulators can be charged up with solar panels during the day to power the base at night. Accumulators are not the only way to work with solar energy. Sometimes it is more economical to just avoid consuming energy at night.

How much power does a solar panel produce?

In the vanilla case, one solar panel has an average output of 42kW. The night has a length of 0.3 times 416.666. 42kW*0.3*416.666 is 5250kJ, which is 1.05 times the charge of the accumulator.
