Usage: Solar panels can be placed as a cover on a GT machine, battery buffer, machine hull or even cable, or crafted into a standalone solar panel block. Cover-type solars need periodic cleaning by right-clicking with empty hand while having a bucket of water in your inventory (can be done by golems), or their output will decrease. Solar panel blocks lack this disadvantage. |

Thaumcraft offers an option to make compressed solar panels. These take 8 panels of the previous tier to produce 10 times more power, so even if recipes become exponentially more expensive there's a bit of advantage. Octuple compressed solar panels can produce 100,000,000 EU/t, which is almost 200 times more than a UV solar panel. Moreover, there are infused versions of compressed solars which produce even more power under certain conditions. For example, octuple aqua infused solar can produce up to 600,000,000 EU/t while in thunderstorm. These also have the added bonus of being very TPS efficient, which is very important late game. |
