Solar panels and accumulators optimal ratio.
Factorio solar panel layout 0 14.
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.
Solar panels are an unlimited source of free energy that produce no pollution.
Note your roboports will be closer together here which isn t necessarily a bad thing depending on your base.
This mod adds a lot of new items including but not limited to mining drills solar panels crates long handed inserters and ore metal compression.
It has a space efficiency space taken up by panels and accumulators of 0 9898.
So almost 99 and an accumulator to solar panel ratio of 0 84009.
I don t recall anything being changed for the solar panels or accumulators specifically so what worked for you in 0 14 should work just as well in 0 15.
14 substations 373 accumulators and 444 solar panels.
Haven t seen this design posted anywhere so here is yet another 0 15 solar panel layout this solar panel layout has a roboport only uses 4 substations has the exact 0 84 ratio 84 accumulators 100 solar panels and is symettrical.
Very close to the ideal of 0 84.
As you can see i.

This means one solar panel produces an average of 42 kw over one day and night cycle.
Though in all honesty you probably aren t ready for solar panels yet if the cost bothers you.
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.
Here s what it looks like and here s what an array of 32 of them look like together.

Generated power will increase decrease linearly during dusk and dawn and no power is produced at night.
