A wind turbine produces a variable amount of power up to 3450w based on the current wind speed for wind conditions see weather it works day and night compared to a solar generator which only works during the day.
Do windmills worki with solar panels under them rimworld.
They will spin equally well in any direction.
They will spin equally well in any direction.
Wind turbines make a hell of a lot of power but unpredictably.
Solar panels under wind turbines work great for saving space 3.
Solar generators may be protected by surrounding them with walls but they must stay unroofed to operate.
Jul 2 2018 10 39am yeah i knew about the solar panels.
They don t like fire.
You can place solar panels graves turrets idk about modded ones sandbags and crops not trees.
Solars do very poorly at high latitudes in the winter.
Just as long as the turbine itself is in the zone.
An important thing to note is that neither solar panels nor crop fields block the turbines and so can be placed in their wind zones for compact.
If there is still a little overhang in one of their zones.
There is no such thing as wind direction in this game so orientation of the turbines doesn t matter.
They also don t make much power but they re reliable predictable and cheap.
Just make sure you leave space so you can get to the wind turbine later when it breaks down.
A solar generator provides up to 1700w of power from sunlight.
Wind turbines can also share restricted zones.
It has much smaller space requirements than a wind turbine but provides no power at night or during an eclipse it can be placed in a wind turbine s exclusion zone with no effect on the turbine.
