About this build

A 240 MW power plant for Aquilo: 10 heating towers burning fuel feed heat exchangers and 40 steam turbines, with heat pipes laid out to keep the build from freezing. It has 884 buildings in a 63 by 35 tile area. Fuel arrives through requester chests, so it needs a bot network.

Before you place it

  • Clear a space of at least 63 × 35 tiles.
  • You need the Space Age expansion (Heating tower, Quality).
  • It places uncommon quality items: your logistic network must hold them at that quality before robots can build it.
  • It is large: construction robots will place it much faster than building by hand.
  • It uses circuit logic. Do not remove wires or combinators when you adapt it.
