==== Power Production Reactors ====
'''EU reactors''' produce raw energy directly with a 50% penalty. Use cables to transform the power into the GT type. ▼

* '''Vacuum reactors''' produce EU, but rely on cooling the cells in a vacuum freezer to keep it from exploding. See the [[Vacuum Reactors]] page to find out how to use them, and also redstone automation info.
'''Wrench reactors''' are a meme, you can read about them [https://gtnh.miraheze.org/wiki/Wrench_Cooled_IC2_Fission_Reactor here]▼
▲* '''Wrench reactors''' are a meme, you can read about them [https://gtnh.miraheze.org/wiki/Wrench_Cooled_IC2_Fission_Reactor here] There are several fuel types:
==== Fuel Types ====
'''Thorium''' is the cheapest and easiest to obtain, obtainable in large quantities from coal ore or thorium ore found in the nether. It lasts a long time but doesn't make much power. You need to make these to get Lutetium for Americium later on.▼
'''Uranium''' is obtained at Mars' moons from a couple ores. It doesn't last as long as thorium, but makes more power.▼
'''MOX''' is obtained by mixing plutonium (from depleted uranium rods, centrifuging uranium dust, or ores on later planets) with uranium. It returns enough plutonium to sustain itself. It outputs more power the hotter the reactor is.▼
'''Naquadah''' and '''Naquadria''' are obtained from mid-game ores, and are generally best used in naquadah generators.▼

'''Tiberium''' is made with tiberium. Get this from Ross128ba, the T5 planet.▼

'''The Core''' is made with naquadah and tiberium. Only use it with coolant cells!▼

==== Breeder Reactors ====
'''Rod Breeder Reactors''' produce very little EU but instead transform a Breeder Rod into a different resource. Each reactor tick, all breeding targets get charged by the number of active rods they are next to. The best fuel rods for these reactors are Thorium because they generate the least amount of heat. Using a hotter fuel rod will produce more EU, but won't speed up the breeding process at all.▼

* '''Item Breeder Reactors''' focus on consuming fuel rods as fast as possible to generate resources obtained from centrifuging depleted cells.
==== Breeding Rods ====
'''Lithium''' breeder rods are used to make tritium.▼
