How much power does your base use?

I'm wondering how much power you use for your base.
I think I over did it on the solar panels as this isn't even near peak power.

I use arround 140M to 180M ( depends on alien attack, reseach and such things). I have round 10k solars I think and over 5k turrets.

First I use a few mods and second I have way too much turrets(6.5k). I have only 3k solar. Forgot the number. Heres a pic:
When you want I can upload a map from the FactorioMaps mod.

300-350 MW depending on laser demand:
The power generators I'm using are "Dark matter generators" from the Power Limiter mod. They're essentially solar panel + accumulator combinations except they cost more per MW produced and don't actually store energy but instead always produce at a constant rate. I would use a huge solar farm + accumulator setup but the increased load from the accumulators charging/discharging slows my game down too much.
