Power Blocks are essential for powering a megabase, utilizing EARN Service Trains for construction. The blueprints provided are compatible with EARN 20.

Boiler Block (Author: MisterGrimmJaw)

Boilers are your initial solution for base power needs. This layout supports either wood or coal as fuel.

  • Power Output: 216 MW with 240 Steam Engines.

Solar Block

The Solar Block has two versions, one with a built-in solar service station. When connected via roboports, this initial block supports the construction of additional adjacent solar blocks. Accumulators are included to handle the day/night cycle on Nauvis.

  • Power Output:

    • Solar Block with Service Station: 61.26 MW

      • 1,021 Solar Panels & 869 Accumulators (Ratio: 0.8511).

    • Solar Block: 62.40 MW

      • 1,040 Solar Panels & 888 Accumulators (Ratio: 0.8538).

Fission Reactor Block

The Nuclear Block uses Uranium Fuel Cells to power its 8 Nuclear Reactors. Offshore Pumps are integrated within the blueprint to minimize pipe usage. Consequently, this blueprint must be built on water or with a mod that modifies Offshore Pumps.

  • Power Output: 1.12 GW

This block has two stages to ensure all pumps are positioned inside the water. You can use CTRL+Shift+ Left Click

  • First Stage: Minimum landfill to set up the service station and tracks. It also has rectangular areas where pumps will be placed.

  • Final Stage: Full fission reactor layout.

Fusion Reactor Block (Space Age)

  • WIP - Coming Soon

Hello, i’ve got a question regarding using this blueprint for nuclear Power in combination with quick start base service hub. Requests for service station is not triggering requester chest requests, so no material is being delivered. Do you have any idea as of why? I’m doing a Space Age World.

Possible reasons: - the reactor station may not be connected to core. Check the big power pole for T and C signals - reactor related stuff may not be in the logistics network - service hub and QSB logistics networks may not be connected - service train may be in manual

Will these work with the Earn 21 Book? or is there going to be a new one for E21?
