Ic2 Solar Panel Array

The medium voltage solar array is a block added by the compactsolars mod.

Ic2 solar panel array.

Use a wrench ic 2 or electric wrench to remove the panel properly. This will revert the panel back to a generator. The solar panel is used to create industrialcraft 2 s eu energy using solar power. Solar arrays are machines added in the advanced machines add on to the core mod industrialcraft.

Mit researchers have come up with a solar array which can produce much more energy per square foot than traditional flat panels and potentially more efficiently. They are used to reduce the size of solar farms which can quickly become invasive. The low voltage solar array is an industrial craft 2 generator. It is a more efficient version of the solar panel producing 8 eu t instead of 1 eu t in the same amount of space.

The second tier solar array it generates 64 eu per tick and outputs packets of the same size. There is a slot in the gui that is for charging tools batteries and battery packs. In terms of resources due to. Solar array contains information about the industrial craft mod.

The low voltage solar array is a block added by compactsolars that is an upgrade from the regular solar panel it generates power at a rate equivalent to the advanced solar panel provided that the sky is visible although it does not have any internal storage and also outputs its power at a rate of 8 eu p as opposed to the advanced solar panel s packet size of 32 eu p. Upgrading to a medium voltage solar array allows to generate the same amount of power from a 12 5 smaller area. A medium voltage array outputs 64 eu per tick and a high voltage array outputs a whopping 512 eu but is composed of 512 standard panels. The low voltage solar array will output 8 eu per tick with is the sum output of its component solar panels.

It is still bound by the same placing restrictions working only in direct sunlight and generating far less eu in rain and thunderstorms. The mod is created to reduce lag in worlds if there are a lot of solar panels the world can become laggy. The array doesn t have any internal energy buffer and neither does it charges power items. It can be used to charge any tier of energy storage unit by either connecting the two blocks by placing them directly next to each other or using one of ic2 s different cable types.

An array is a group of 8 lower level solar panels arrays. If attempting to reclaim a solar panel do not use any type of pick as this has adverse effects on the fragile components of the block. This ratio remains true with the higher tier solar arrays as well. There is an add on named advanced solar panels that introduces 3 new solar panels advanced hybrid and ultimate hybrid each an upgrade from the last.
