First look
This mod allows you to generate FE from the sun.
Ingots necessary for recipes:
nuggetSteel, nuggetLead, nuggetInvar, nuggetElectrum, nuggetSignalum, nuggetEnderium, nuggetLumium, nuggetPlatinum
I recommend installing the OreLibrary (by 00theblackwolf00) to have all the ores needed for crafting
Since many ask me, "Why don't I see the recipes about JEI?". The answer is simple, the recipes use the oredictionary, this means that they accept all the minerals that add the other mods. So if you don't see the recipes, it means you don't have any mods that make this crafting possible.

How do I connect a solar panel to a machine?
In reply to alaswing:
Put the solar panel attached to the machine
Since orelibrary hasn't yet updated to 1.19, will this still be a working mod without it? Thanks.
In reply to Muddup:
I talked to him and he told me it's a matter of days and the mod will be updated
In reply to Muddup:
It's on :), sorry for the wait
Would it be possible for higher tiers of solar panels to be added based on AlltheModium materials? (allthemodium, vibranium, and unobtainium)
(https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/allthemodium)
For people trying to use this in 1.18.1 right now, the Useful Machinery mod has all of the materials except Lumium.
Edit: You will probably need some other mod to do the alloying I would recommend Tinkers Construct.
P.S. mod .jar files are really just zip folders, you can unzip this mod with Winrar/7zip and then edit the recipe's.
To make this mod work with the materials in the Useful Machinery mod:
Unzip the .jar file,
Once unzipped go to data>solargeneration>recipes>solar_core,
then open solar_core_advanced.json as a txt file and replace the word "lumium" with a material you actually have (all lowercase) (I used nickel)
save and close
select all of the files that were unzipped and zip them
after it's done zipping use rename to change the file extension from .zip to .jar
Congratz you've just edited your first mod!

+1 !!
& you can use this to help you do that with mc1.16: https://www.digminecraft.com/lists/item_id_list_pc.php ...
(or search Google for "Minecraft ID List" & add your mc version too to make sure you get the right "ID List" for you)
... then there's 'item' versus 'tag' versus 'forge:tag' but that's not important for now.
In reply to Mitch12354:
Or you can download my mod: OreLibrary which adds the required ores :)
Why is this mod updated to 1.18 if the mods needed to craft the items the mod adds isint?, if anyone knows any mod that is on 1.18 that adds the necessary ores and stuff needed for this mod please tell me. :)
In reply to nalleno:
Useful Machinery mod has all except lumium see my post on how to change the recipe if you want to be able to make advanced solar panel and higher.
In reply to Mitch12354:
Might be time for you to jump onto GitHub with the 'Source' link above; or make a dropbox file with the changes to the jar file that you mentioned.
The author has made this mod a "GNU Affero General Public License" (license link in top right) - although the authors permission would be the polite thing to do 1st of course.
In reply to nalleno:

I'm not sure where else to ask this: What mods use ores for this? I get that the recipes I cannot see are because of lacking the right ores from another mod but as of 1.18 I am unsure of which mods utilize the same ores.

is there any mod for 1.17.1 that adds those ingots and nuggets?
What mod can you use for the ores in 1.17.1?
A wee bit more info. in the description maybe?
Like - Solarium, etc. are ALLOYS (combinations of two or more metals) that are provided by several mods, such as [you get the idea...].
I looked at CLib, and it was for 1.16.[something], and then I looked up Silent's Mechanisms, only to find out that "Solarium", et. al. were NOT among the ores that mod provided (because, of course they are NOT "ores" at all, but alloys of several metals combined), and I had never USED Thermal, and so did not know what "Solarium" actually WAS.
Quite confusing for a while :-}
I added Thermal, and all good now! Thanks for a pretty cool solar power mod!
Is there a list of compatible mods that supply the prerequisite ores/metals/powders/alloys etc.?
Currently using Janoeo and JAOPCA but neither seem to be supplying all the necessities.
Just a quick reminder: minecraft mods are in a 'jar' file; a *.jar file = *.zip file.
These files are editable/configurable with a standard text editor just the same as you can edit configs/settings in a '*.toml' file found in the '.minecraft\config' folder (but stay away from the *.class files).
