Are you able to place Wind Turbines and Large Solar Panels onto large Storage on vehicles in Astroneer?
I started a new game and while creating a rover to find a solar array I wondered if I was able to place wind turbines onto large storage fit onto trucks, if anyone can help please do!

Using a large turbine or solar panel may not be the best choice). Kinda depends on your needs.
I generally build the large rover. I put 1-seat module on it from the medium printer (NOT! the one from the vehicle bay as it can't be removed later). Then I add the large storage on the back which then provides 4 2x slots. Then I place a medium storage next to the 1 seat on front.
I put 1 small solar and one small wind on each face (front and back) in the top row of that medium panel. That way at least one is always facing the sun or into the wind whatever direction I am driving. I also typically place 2x organic on the back and 1x on the front with a small generator.
That one panel then serves as the power supply for the vehicle and harnesses all forms, light, wind and organic.
This leaves the rear configurable for what I want (expect) to haul. For exploring, I typically put 2x medium panels and leave 2x of the double slots free for unknowns and provides 16x storage for harvested ore. If I am not expecting unknowns, then I can load up with medium panels yielding 32x storage. Then you can lift the whole panels off and drop them on your smelter for refining.
Using a large turbine or solar consumes a double slot. So that takes up the place for an unknown or a medium panel and loosing 8x storage.
By using the 1-seat from the medium printer (instead of vehicle bay) you can remove the seat and gain another double slot for unknowns or add another medium panel for 8x storage and then tow it with another rover.

Is there a large wind turbine in Astroneer?
The XL Wind Turbine is a power generation item and the largest version of Wind Turbines. It has the highest energy output of all craftable power generators in the game.Can you combine wind turbine and solar panels?
Wind generators and solar panels can be hooked up together through the same wiring system. You simply need to do some research and purchase a controller that is capable of handling both systems. The set up is fairly straightforward and will vary slightly based on the individual energy systems that you are using.How do you make a large wind turbine Astroneer?
