On Fulgora a full-sized solar panel produces 12 kW (-80% penalty), and a personal solar panel in the equipment grid produces 30 kW (no reported penalty).
This might be intended behavior for gameplay purposes, but it seems strange that a 1x1 grid module produces 2.5x a 3x3 building of the same technology.

Is it that the panels themselves don't respect the solar bonus/penalty or is it that the UI doesn't? It feels like on Vulcanus the bonus applies, though the armor UI still only says 30kW/panel.

The bonus/malus seems to apply but the tooltip never changes and thus is not correct.
Re: [2.0.11] Portable solar panel not affected by per-planet insolation
Neither the tooltip for the solar panel itself nor the suit "Solar panel power" are updated. This is quite confusing on low solar planets e.g. Fulgora with 20% power.

Thanks for the report! This will be fixed in 2.0.21.
