−
A machine that converts solid fuel to energy. It generates up to 20 kW per game-tick (40 kJ/s).
+
The solid generator requires [[Coal|coal]] and outputs 20KW of power per each coal tick.

+
The generator is not on-demand, meaning if you put in 50 [[Coal|coal]], it will burn 50 [[Coal|coal]] with the power potentially vanishing. An [[Area Power Controller|area power controller]]([[Area Power Controller|APC]]) will allow you to charge a [[Stationary Battery|battery]]to help capture some of the wasted energy. The [[Area Power Controller|APC]] you will only charge 1KW of power to the connected [[Stationary Battery|battery]] (plus any downstream loads), effectively wasting about 95% of your [[Coal|coal]].

It consumes about 16 [[Coal|coal]] pieces to fully charge a [[Stationary Battery|stationary battery]]. This is about 3 [[Coal|coal]] pieces per [[Stationary Battery|battery]] indicator light.
  
−
This generator outputs energy dependent on the demand, up to 20kW. In particular, it can be connected to a [[Cable Coil|cable coil]] if the demand is up to 5kW. Higher demand requires a [[Cable_Coil_(Heavy)|heavy cable coil]]. Demands lower than 20kW result in an energy loss, as this generator burns fuel at a constant rate independent of the demand.
+
Connect your generator to a [[Stationary Battery|stationary battery]] with [[Cable_Coil_(Heavy)|heavy cable coil]] to store all 20KW of power being produced.

Like the [[Gas_Generator|gas generator]], '''solid fuel generator''' seems to need atmosphere to run, otherwise it will start and stop even if the power button is ON (game version: 0.1.1564.7373)
