These Power Blocks are essential for powering your base—and with the updated EARN 22 service-station layouts, they expand seamlessly via EARN Service Trains.

Boiler Block

Boilers are your initial solution for base power needs.
Features:

  • Works with both coal and wood trains, prioritizing wood over coal.

  • Enable wood processing via the constant combinators to receive wood trains.

  • Performs best under full load when smart accumulator control is disabled.

Net Power Output: 475.2 MW
Components: 528 Boilers

Solar Block

Updated for EARN 22 with improved roboport positioning—adjacent solar blocks now share a unified logistics network without a bridge—and a better panel/accumulator ratio.

Solar Block with Service Station

Net Power Output: 145.38 MW
Components: 2,438 Solar Panels & 2,063 Accumulators
Ratio: 0.8462

Solar Block (No Service Station)

Net Power Output: 146.56 MW
Components: 2,456 Solar Panels & 2,076 Accumulators
Ratio: 0.8453

Fission Reactor Block

Reactor logic has been improved to take full advantage of the neighbor bonus when reactors are clustered. Water input still comes via fluid trains.

Features:

  • Enhanced reactor-neighbor bonus logic for higher per-reactor output.

  • Uses the EARN 22 Reactor Refuel Train from Service Hub → Trains with Refuel Station.

Stable Power Output: 2.4 GW
Peak Power Output: 2.584 GW
Components: 240 Heat Exchangers & 444 Steam Turbines
Efficiency: 375%

Ace McGee

Are these backwards compatible to the EARN 2.1?

Anders Duus

v22.0.6 show as v22.0.5 when imported.

Don Mason

Love your work! I think the version info for v22.0.6 was not updated. Is this the correct version of the blueprint?

ElderAxe

No. Each version of Power Blocks are compatible with the same EARN version. You should use EARN 22 for these to work.
