Vulcanus power generation omg

100 hours in, about to go to Aquilo, and now I figured out how easy it is.

Torn between feeling giddy and excited, and feeling like a huge idiot.

I know right? My friend and I were like, wait? We can hook how many turbines to a Chem plant?

I’ll say this, keep solar as a backup, or way overbuild what you need on turbines. Low power, causing pump jacks and steam generation to slow, can cause a negative feedback loop and crash your power!

Why not use solar? It's still very efficient with higher solar output then other planets.

Solar is good! But it's still space consuming, and Vulcanus is a bit space constrained due to the lava.
