There is an achievement you cannot build any solar panels but i remember before you launch your rocket you need to insert a satellite and that satellite require like 100 solar panels wondering how to get that done.
Factorio solar panels needed for acheivement.
60kw max 42kw average per solar panel ratio of 70 usable to total 10mw worth of solar panels will power a factory of 7mw.
I would assume that power generated by steam turbines does not count as power generated by solar panels.
Has to be just upped my solar panel game and went to 10 000 solar panels and no achievement.
10 gj 1h 10 gj 3600s 2 8mw 66 1 solar panels.
So today i realized i messed up.
Kilowatts can be directly converted to gj h.
Been waiting 30ish minutes and nothing so far.
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.
I ve dismantled steam engines completely to ensure they aren t powering anything.
It doesn t say on steam using just solar panels and just says without using steam engines but thank you for that amount.
Please try again later.
During the day excess power generated is stored in accumulators during the night accumulators release their charge to power your factory.
It takes 23 8 solar panels to operate 1 mw of factory and charge 20 accumulators to sustain that 1 mw through the night.
This feature is not available right now.
In my 1h tab it still shows steam engines so i assume i need to wait an actual hour.
I failed my anti solar panel achievement discussion.
Maths for above if you re interested.
In order to get the solaris achievement you need to have 47 solar panels connected without any steam engine s for at least an hour.
Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
I m relatively new to the game but have been enjoying it immensely.
This was my first game with biters so i got a lot of those achievements satisfied.
1kw 1000 j s 1kw 0 0036 gj h.
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.
Factorio 0 16 golem achievement.
One solar panel provides 60 kw peak.
