+description: <<-END
+A [[Basic Solar Panel]] is a device that can be placed to generate energy from the sun.
+
+Unlike the [[Advanced Solar Panel]], the basic one does not adjust to the sun, and is therefore only collecting an ideal amount of energy when the sun is directly above.
+
+It is multi-block device that consists of a base block, the pole, and a solar array that is 3x3 in size. When placed on flat land, solar arrays need at least 2 blocks between each other.
