The update also added a new item called extenders which can be used to connect power lines over long distances.
Big solar panel astroneer.
It requires sunlight to provide power.
See wrecked solar array for more information.
The medium solar panel is one of the power generators in astroneer it can be placed on two adjacent slots on a platform or vehicle.
This is the only solar unit that acts as a platform meaning that it must be placed on the ground.
In this video i will show you how to setup giant solar panels to power your base please take the time to hit that like button.
They can be crafted using 1 copper 1 glass 1 plastic and 1 graphene.
It only produces power when exposed to sunlight.
The solar array is a power module in astroneer.
Just connect the extenders to the solar panel and connect them to a platform at your base.
Unlike the medium solar panel the solar array isn t required to be placed on a platform.
The wrecked solar arrays are space objects that consist of a single large solar panel and a connection point.
The solar array is the largest craftable solar panel being made in the large printer.
See their wiki page.
So i found this really tall solar pannel that looks like it s fallen off a space station and figured it could be of use as there is a little port on the side for what looks like the base tubes and little indicators on the sides that are blinking.
It can be moved by the player or a vehicle with a winch.

So one way to get connected to the solar panel would be to just place a platform next to it and connect the power.
The wrecked solar array is a discovery unique in that it is the only functional non craftable solar panel in astroneer.
