Catalytic Generator

The catalytic generators are the main source of power for Nadir. They generate power using the acid sea using cathode and anode rods, which will degrade over time and need to be replaced regularly. There are four engines, two in the northern and southern most points of the station.

The efficiency of the generator depends on the material of the rods, where one should be conductive, the other should be resistant. It's important to remember to update the SMES values as the rods deteriorate, as eventually the incoming power may reduce to below what the SMES input is expecting and power will stop being sent out.

Because of Nadir's location in the acid sea, a mining venture to find better materials to make rods out of may seem ill-advised. Thankfully, the on-station siphon can allow you to create whatever materials are needed. For what materials are best, generally a bohrum rod for the resistor and a claretine rod for the conductor should supply plenty of power.
