Unfortunately dusty panels don t soak up as much of the sun s rays reducing the efficiency.
Surviving mars most efficient solar panel layout.
The sun is a late game tech so unless it was rushed why would you do that or gained via some event or another tech then you d probably have mohole up and running by the time you build it which means you have more metal than you need.
Water deposits aren t reliable once your population goes above 1000 even if you manage your farms properly with the reclamation spire eventually you will need to set up vaporators but with the 50 upgrade you don t need as much free space as you might think.

Choose a space agency for resources and financial support before determining a location for your colony.
Mars is an extremely dusty place and all of that red dirt loves to cling to your shiny solar panels.
They are mostly covered by scrubbers so maintenance is not an issue.
Due to all the.
I love to spread them out between my moisture vaporators.
This large jump in efficiency resulted in the power output of a standard size.
Clean optimized layout for easy visual.
Surviving mars basic startup guide to self sufficiency.
In my last playthrough i got the breakthrough that makes solar twice as efficient and then the one where excess energy becomes research.
Solar panel is a power building in surviving mars.
Also you can use the space betwen them to place solar panels or wind turbines etc.
Protected from dust while turned off.
Note that wind turbines have a higher efficiency rating at higher altitudes.
Generates power during daytime.
Only 1 of the 3 parts of the solar panel need to be within the blue solar radiation area.
And solar panels will also see a power production reduction.
The two small panels in the right and upper corners are the only ones that do not function at night.
Then i learned the gospel of the small solar panel.
There will be challenges to overcome.
Optimal solar layout displayed in screenshot.
Wind turbines however will see an increase in power production during this time.
Maintenance for solar panels is a great way of getting rid of excess metal.
Surviving mars is a sci fi settlement builder all about colonizing mars and surviving the process.
