They are tech level spacer and need a high tech research bench and a multianalyzer.
Rimworld solar panel.
Steel x100 components x5 plasteel x16.
Wind turbines can also share restricted zones.
Sun lamps automatically turn themselves off at night to save power while the plants are resting.
Deconstruct all solar panels from your map first and then proceed to save your game before removing the mod.
A sun lamp will illuminate tiles within a five block radius at 100 and outside tiles at only 50 or less.
Even in colonies that do not use wind or solar energy batteries are useful to cover spikes in power usage usually caused by turret arrays and devices like crematoriums smelters and.
Research is dependent on vanilla research electricity solar and geothermal.

Just make sure you leave space so you can get to the wind turbine later when it breaks down.
Note regarding mod removal.
The placement restrictions for wind and geothermal still apply.
The example setup including 24 hydroponics basins can be fully powered by one geothermal generator and a solar panel connected to a single buffer battery.
It has much smaller space requirements than a wind turbine but provides no power at night or during an eclipse it can be placed in a wind turbine s exclusion zone with no effect on the turbine.
Solar generators may be protected by surrounding them with walls but they must stay unroofed to operate.
Just as long as the turbine itself is in the zone.
A solar generator provides up to 1700w of power from sunlight.
You can place solar panels graves turrets idk about modded ones sandbags and crops not trees.
