About this build

A small tileable solar block with solar panels and accumulators in the ratio that keeps about 1 MW running through the night. One substation covers the whole 18 by 18 tile block, so blocks snap together in a grid.

Stamp more blocks as demand grows. Built in Factorio 1.1 by its author; 2.0 converts it when you import it, so check it once after placing.

Before you place it

  • Clear a space of at least 18 × 18 tiles.
  • It works in the base game without Space Age.
  • It was made in Factorio 1.1; the game converts it when you import it, so check it once after placing.
