Any electrically connected crafting surface trying to draw power can use the current generated, but it's most practical to connect with a [[flywheel]] and store it for release at a higher rate. Multiple solar panels may be connected to one flywheel in order to increase electric productivity if needed. When no other crafting surface is drawing power, a solar panel will accumulate any generated electricity and release it once there is a demand. It doesn't store much, though. | Any electrically connected crafting surface trying to draw power can use the current generated, but it's most practical to connect with a [[flywheel]] and store it for release at a higher rate.

A single solar panel generating for an entire cloudless day will fill approximately 5% of a flywheel's capacity. | |||

A solar panel does not require any of the usual fuels, instead it must be exposed to light. | A solar panel does not require any of the usual fuels, instead it must be exposed to light from the sun. Artificial lights like lamps and chandeliers have minimal effect on the energy generation of solar panels. Heat and light from magma do not generate any electricity for the solar panel. | ||
Like a real solar panel the amount of energy generated depends on how bright the sun is. | |||

When a player first makes a [[blockhead]] place a solar panel, they will receive the [[achievement]] "[[Clean Energy]]". | |||
