− | + | {{info|A '''chemfuel powered generator''' is a structure which provides power by burning [[chemfuel]]. Unlike the varying power production of [[solar generator]]s and [[wind turbine]]s, chemfuel powered generators produce a constant supply of power so long as they are not allowed to run out of fuel. This greatly reduces your base's need for [[battery|batteries]], but will eat into your chemfuel reserves over time, and will add additional workload for your [[hauling|haulers]] to take care of. If you are playing on a map with wild [[boomalope]] herds you can tame, or if you've completed the [[research]] necessary to build a [[refinery]], building chemfuel powered generators is a viable method for producing electricity without having to worry about weather effects or eclipses. | |

− | + | A fully-fueled chemfuel powered generator can hold 25 chemfuel, and will provide power for roughly 6 days and 6 hours before running out. A single boomalope, milked every two days, can easily provide enough fuel to keep two generators running. Chemfuel powered generators produce heat as a by-product, although not as much as a [[campfire]] or [[heater]]. They are also very [[beauty|unattractive]], making them a poor choice for your bedroom-heating needs. | |
