Solar panels are the main fuelless energy source in Starbase, and are also the best option for station power, where they are used on a large scale.
Basic information
As the technology is still in development, many things are uncertain about the functionality; however, they are presumably most profitable when placed on turntables to follow the suns course.
- Every machine on ships or stations that are powered by a solar panel must be connected to the generator with a cable.
Typically solar panels are placed in arrays as seen in the thumbnail of this page. These arrays can take up the surface area of an entire station lot. Also, it would be ideal to place solar panels on both sides of the station or spacecraft to produce maximum amount of energy
