Create: Solar Grid Link

⛔Discontinuation

The Create: Power Grid has received an update that introduces much better solar panels, making the continuation of my mod unnecessary

📄Informations

Create: Solar Grid Link dont add any new block it converts the panel’s stored FE into electrical watts presenting it as a voltage source with current output using Device Connector from Create: Power Grid you just need to place it under Solar Panel from Create: Solar Powered

🧩 Requirements

to work Create: Solar Grid Link needs:

• Create
• Create: Solar Powered
• Create: Power Grid

👀 Preview

In the pictures below, you can see how the mod actually works with solar panels.

⚙️Configuration

| Setting | Type | Default | Range | Description |
| :— | :—: | :—: | :—: | :— |
| baseVoltage | Double | 11.5 V | 1.0 – 1000.0 V | Panel voltage at a full internal buffer |
| voltagePerCharge | Double | 1.2 V | 0.0 – 1000.0 V | Extra voltage added per full charge level of the buffer |
| sourceResistance | Double | 0.5 Ω | 0.01 – 100.0 Ω | Internal (series) resistance when the panel feeds the grid; lower = stiffer voltage |
| bufferBackupSeconds | Double | 30.0 s | 1.0 – 600.0 s | How long a full buffer keeps supplying power after sunset |
| maxScanPanels | Integer | 5000 | 100 – 1 000 000 | Max panels scanned per array (safety bumper, not a functional cap) |
