Ok this is probably a dumb question, but I'm new to owning structures and resource minining, having previously been a pure combat type.

Anyway the only energy I seem to be able to put in my mineral extractors etc is wind energy. I bought some known solid petrochemicals, which have an energy rating, but was unable to use these to power my structures. What do I need to do to make this a usable energy source, or amI trying to do something really dumb ?

Solth

I had the same experience - it was being sold under "energy" on the bazaar, so you'd THINK you could put it in your harvesters/factories, no?

I *THINK* the liquid/solid fuels won't work - they may be intended for vehicles when they come out.

Wind/Solar energy works great - I know that from personal experience. I've heard radioactive also works, but I haven't tried it yet.

Anyone else?

Thanks guys,

I guess I'll stick to my wind and solar power then.
