How much steady power do your solar panels and accumulators really give, and how many do you need for the power you want? Works per planet, with quality and modded panels and accumulators, and also counts accumulator charge and discharge limits. Presets, and a tool that reads the counts from an electric network. Our own rewrite of the idea of Solar Calculator by Kaktusbot.
Providing the player with new tools or adjusting the game interface, without fundamentally changing gameplay.
Version: 0.1.8
Date: 2026-11-01
Info:
- First release: our own rewrite of the idea of Solar Calculator by Kaktusbot, for Factorio 2.1.
Features:
- Peak power, the steady average power and accumulator capacity for any planet or surface, with quality and modded panels and accumulators.
- Sets the panels and accumulators for a power you want, up to 10 TW, or balances one against the other.
- Counts accumulator charge and discharge limits, and says what is holding the power back.
- Presets, and a tool that reads the counts from an electric network.
- Timber & Industry's Solar, Accumulator and Advanced Solar Arrays can be picked in a row or read with the tool, and count as full.
- Works with Krastorio 2 and Space Exploration. Machines of theirs that are built as accumulators but store nothing usable aren't counted.
