Accumulator storage effeciency

[Rockstar04]

I would love to have a property for accumulators that defined their effieneicy, for example

Code: Select all

{
  type = "accumulator",
  name = "basic-accumulator",
  max_health = 150,
  energy_source =
  {
    type = "electric",
    buffer_capacity = "5MJ",
    usage_priority = "terciary",
    input_flow_limit = "300kW",
    output_flow_limit = "300kW",
    effectivity = 0.95
  }
}

I would really like to make a mod that contained flywheel energy storage for early game power spikes, but it would be very unrealistic to have 100% efficiency source. Even battery energy storage like the current accumulators top out around 85% efficiency source (but I understand that some people would be very against that change).


There are several threads with hot debate on solar / clean energy.
