Compared to [[campfire]]s, fueled stoves are a general upgrade. Meals are cooked twice as fast, fuel isn't used outside of cooking, and stoves give access to [[fine meal]]s and [[lavish meal]]s. Campfires are theoretically more ''wood'' efficient, as 1 wood can create up to 10 [[simple meal]]s, as opposed to the stove's 1 simple meal. In practice, campfires burn wood constantly: fueled stoves are more wood efficient until 10 or more meals are cooked per day (roughly 5 colonists of hunger). But, regardless, it's more ''time'' efficient to cut down 1 more tree than it is to cook at a campfire. This assumes your [[biome]] has enough trees to cut. Of course, campfires also produce consistent [[temperature|heat]] and [[light]].

Compared to [[electric stove]]s and [[wood-fired generator]]s, the combination uses more wood than a campfire (22/day vs 10/day), but cook just as fast as a fueled stove. There will also be 650 W of [[power]] left for other utilities, such as [[standing lamp]]s, [[heater]]s, and [[cooler]]s. Every other source of power has much less or no fuel cost at all. If wood is plentiful, using electricity in general is much more time efficient. If wood isn't, then just use a 0 wood [[wind turbine]] instead.

Power is vulnerable to [[solar flare]]s and other disruptions to the grid, but these are minor concerns. At worst, you can keep the fueled stove for emergency situations.
