Construction

Power plant on Facilities

You can build a Power plant on Facilities, after you research the required technology.

• You need 300 Frame and 500 Plate, to build your first Power plant.
• You need 10% more resources, each time you build another one.

Example costs:
Current Power plants	Frame	Plate
0	300	500
1	330	550
2	363	605
3	399	665.5

n	300 × 1.1n	500 × 1.1n

Consumption

• Active Power plants consume Coal and Water.

You can toggle Power plants, to be active or to stop consumption, with the 'Toggle' button. Power plants stop production, if you do not have resources to maintain them.

Resources consumed:
Consumes	Rate
Coal	0.05 per second
Water	2 per second

Production

• Active Power plants generate 1 MW Energy per hour.

You can toggle Power plants, to be active or to stop production, with the 'Toggle' button. * Power plants stop production, if you do not have resources to maintain them.
