The extra will go to storage.
Subsistence solar panel.
Many items crafted in subsistence require power and mass to be made.
Angle the approximate angle of the sun in the sky.
Solar with enough generation in excess of load in order to fill enough storage to last through the night is all you really need.
Three panels and some storage keeps my fridge with both energy efficiency upgrades running.
I have 2 panel one with the 2 upgrade he give me 0 11 p s cost 25 copper 36 elec 22 metal 20 iron 2 sinew 1 rope the second give me 0 07 p s whitout upgrade cost 15 copper 20 elect 10 metal 3 sineuw panel upgrade cost more than normal panel no.
The table below gives a general detailing of.
Maybe need little more power gain with upgrade.
For that reason i always position the solar panels on the roof of my 3 story.
Aug 7 5 44am wind turbines and solar panel placement.
The solar panels begin to collect light pretty early so the sooner they can get some sun the faster they begin to load your power storage.
Subsistence general discussions topic details.
Also as of now in my opinion it isn t worth upgrading solar panels.
Build enough panels to cover base power expenditures some extra.
Once you hit that point then think about adding some turbines.
Time how many minutes have passed from start of the day to night time.
Power how many power units per second are generated at the solar panel.
Bcu reading of generated power units being displayed on the bcu.
I have a question about solar panel.
3 fully upgraded panels with bcu auto gen can self sustain a fully upgraded fridge and 2 fully upgraded wellheads and still manage to squeak out about 0 04 power per second charge to your base.
Solar panels are friggen fantastic.

Power can be generated through multiple sources all at varying rates.

Time to do one of these numbers.
Once the base command unit has been place the base will have a 500 maximum power and 100 maximum mass.
Just build more of them.
Eff how efficient the solar panels are at the moment.
Honestly i don t see the need for the wind turbines at least at the stage of all of my bases on all of my profiles.
4 or more panels and you are set for life.
