What the Electric Pylon Does

The Electric Pylon is a passive efficiency structure: while one is placed in your base, all electricity-generating work at that base is faster. It doesn't need power itself, doesn't need a pal assigned to it, and doesn't need to sit next to your generators — simply having it anywhere in the base radius applies the bonus.

How to Use It

  • Unlocked at level 48 in the technology tree for 2 technology points.
  • Build exactly one per base. As the in-game description says, placing more than one has no additional effect.
  • It must be placed within your base's radius to count.
  • It speeds up pals with the Generating Electricity suitability as they charge your Power Generator or Large Power Generator.

Tips

The Electric Pylon is one of a family of one-per-base efficiency boosters, each covering a different work type. It matters most at late-game factory bases where electric furnaces, assembly lines, and other powered structures drain generators constantly. At that stage you're likely also weighing the Beta Wave Generator, which raises the work speed of every base pal — the two together keep a power-hungry base humming.
