The singularity engine is the primary source of power on the station. By harnessing radiant energy produced by a locally-controlled cosmic [[Singularity]] (otherwise known as a man-made black hole), and converting the radiation to electrical power via [[#Radiation Collectors|Radiation Collectors]], an enormous amount of energy can be generated for the station.

Their power output is directly dependent on how full their Plasma Tanks are and how much Radiation is being emitted by the Singularity.

== Tesla Engine ==
Make Nikola Tesla proud and violate the laws of thermodynamics and harness a ball of pure electricity. A much less popular alternative to the singularity, the Tesla generates power through converting the stray electric bolts of the [[Tesla]] Ball, power may be funneled right into the station for use via strategically placed [[Engineering_items#Tesla Coil|Tesla Coils]]. Unlike the Singularity Engine, the Tesla Engine must be neutralized by way of [[Engineering_items#Grounding Rod|Grounding Rods]] else the Tesla Ball will blow Engineering and the rest of the station to kingdom come.
=== Tesla Ball ===
The Tesla Ball consists of two parts, the central ball itself and a maximum of 10 orbiting Miniballs. With each Miniball added to the orbit, the power generated per shock increases linearly. The power generated by the Tesla ball itself is more than enough to power a standard sized station several times over. However, many engineers prefer to generate as much power as possible to combat [[Syndicate_Items#Power_Sink|Power Sinks]] and unprotected [[Assistant|retards]].
=== Tesla Coils ===
The Tesla Coils are the Tesla Engine's equivalent of the Radiation Collectors as the machines responsible for converting engine product into usable power. The Tesla coils are highly conductive and funnel the power of the Tesla into the wires and to the SMES cells. The amount of power generated by the Tesla bolts is dependent on the number of mini balls as well as the efficiency of the Tesla Coils which vary depending on the capacitor installed inside of them.

'''Note: These values reflect the full power generated for each shock, however the power is released over time so measured values may not reflect the values on this table.'''


=== Grounding Rods ===
Grounding Rods are the key to keeping you, and the rest of the crew, from being a gibbed mess. It is imperative that you install the grounding rods correctly or else you get lynched by both the crew and centcomm for destroying their expensive space station. Four coils in each corner outside the containment field is enough to keep the Tesla Ball tamed, but be sure to keep them close to the Tesla Coils else the coils don't get their fair share of power.
