There are many forms of power generation in the game. The most basic forms of generation are the [[BurnerGenerator]], and the [[Boiler]] which is used with [[SteamTurbine|Steam Turbines]]. Both of these run off of coal bins (and, in the case of [[Boiler|Boilers]], you also need [[Water]]) and don't generate as much power as other, more advanced sources, however they are great for a basic base or for getting off your starting planet. If you would like to know more, check out [[Steam Power]]. |

You could also use a more passive energy solution, such as [[SolarPanel|SolarPanels]]. [[SolarPanel|Solarpanels]] |
You could also use a more passive energy solution, such as [[SolarPanel|SolarPanels]]. [[SolarPanel|Solarpanels]] require no physical fuel and absorb sunlight for energy. This makes them great for space vehicles/buildings, however in most places they dont make much power, requiring multiple very large panel for decent generation. |

A more advanced type of power generator is the [[Reactor|reactor]]. The reactor can be thought of like a really powerful, more complicated [[Boiler]]. They take [[Uranium]] and [[Water]] to make [[Steam]]. If you would like to know more, check out [[Steam Power]] and [[Reactor]] |
