Accumulators are structures that buffer excess [[Power_Grid|power]] for use later. They are often seen paired with [[Solar_Panel|solar]] setups due to solar only being active during the day. This allows the factory to operate at night, running off of the stored power in the accumulators. In addition to buffering solar, they can be used to cover small spikes in power demand, such as recharging the Icarus Mech | Accumulators are structures that buffer excess [[Power_Grid|power]] for use later.

In combination with storing energy as a building, they can also act as batteries when held as items. You can then use an Accumulator to charge them and send them between planets. | |||
