Solar panels appear on some pre built ships most prominently the commercial types which are generated with large arrays at the fore.

It is created using a large or small reactor or windmill or by using a solar panel it can be stored in a battery and discharged to the grid it is built on.
Mar 25 2016 8 06am building a small ship with solar panels hi.
Being all hydrogen you shouldn t be using too much power just from moving it around so don t be afraid to use the survival kit to establish a foothold somewhere.
Electricity is a system and resource in space engineers that is used to power most devices.
Even with large vehicles i like nomadic buggy bases you can convert to station to charge your batteries from wind and then convert back and drive away.
24 7 reliable power vs messing around with alignment scripts on massive solar arrays that only work half a day is a no brainer.
Oh and also a gyroscope and a fighter cockpit.
I wanted to build a small ship just for exploring and wanted to know how much solar panel i would need to get my big thruster and my 10 small ones to work.
