By balancing the charge of accumulators between servers we get smooth power graphs and more vanilla like functionality. As an example, this allows for having most accumulators in one server and having them be recharged by solar panels on another server as seen in the graphs below.

The throughput of this transfer method is limited by the total accumulator charge/discharge rate of the electric network, so it is slightly worse in the early game. We can consider having an oversized accumulator as part of the link to alleviate this.

This requires API support, so won't work in 2.0.73.
