Solar collectors,[1] also known as solar panels[2] or solar collector panels,[3] were a clean, quiet form of energy collection.
Used to power bases and strongholds with relatively cheap energy, solar collectors were nonetheless inefficient, and often required bases to have a minimum of over fifty percent of its surfaces dedicated to collector panels. Additionally, the panels were not very well armored and were highly susceptible to damage.[4]
