Introduction
Energy is the basic resource in Technic. It is needed by every machine (with different amounts) to power them. You cannot change energy types without a Switching Station, and there is a 10% decrease in energy when you switch.
Energy Sources
Here is a list of all energy sources:
| Type | LV | MV | HV | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fuel-Fired | 200EU | 600EU | 1.2kEU | Needs fuel to run. |
| Solar Panel | (light + y position) * 3EU | - | - | The panel has a cap of 200EU and doesn't work below y=0. |
| Solar Array | (light + y position) * 10EU | (light + y position) * 30EU | (light + y position) * 100EU | Same as Solar Panel |
| Hydro | amount of flowing water around * 4EU | amount of flowing water around * 40EU | - | Maximum power generated is 180EU and 1.8kEU, respectively |
| Geothermal | 1 water + 1 lava around: 50EU 2 water + 1 lava around: 100EU 1 lava + 2 water around: 200EU 2 water + 2 lava around: 300EU |
- | - | Put the water and lava opposite another in order to not destroy another. |
| Nuclear | - | - | 100kEU | Needs proper protection, otherwise it will melt down. Also, the power is only for 1 week. |
| Battery Box | 500EU | 2kEU | 10kEU | Needs charge before giving energy. Each battery adds 10% to the storage. |
Energy Demands
