Answer from user263313 on Stack ExchangeHow can I upgrade the "Upgradable" Generators in Simple Generators? I feel like they could generate more energy if i Upgrade them but i don't get how.

Fully upgrade at least 9 culinary gens with speed modifiers then build a massive pig farm (With a spawner you can craft) using mob mashers that have fire aspect, sharpness, and looting upgrades. If you do it right, you will get hundred if not thousands of cooked porkchops just lying there. Wire up a vacuum hopper to the culinary generators. If you did it correctly, the spawner that you placed (Also, put a dragon egg in the spawner with some sugar, ghast tears, fermented spider eye and clocks) will spawn pigs (Because the spawners in minecraft default to pigs) and the pigs will die on the mob mashers. The vacuum hopper will suck the items up and put the cooked porkchops into the culinary generators, which will produce stupid amounts of power.
I just made my automatic lava generator, and I want to start using lava for power. I'm using simple generators geothermal generators, but I wan to know what upgrades can be put into the upgradable version of the generator. I can't find anything in JEI that seems like it would go in. If its locked behind a prestige upgrade, what upgrade is it?
Hey people, just wondering if anyone has any tips for power generation in sky factory 4. I’m currently running a Simulation chamber, with a a Generator that burns coal (integrated dynamics) and an Upgradable Combustion Generator(simple generators) with a solar panel on top and it constantly tells me that the energy levels are critical and I’m not producing enough power. Just curious to see if I’m being an idiot and using low tier generators or if this is an issue for others. I have plenty of Osmium and other Fairly late game materials, so anything that’s better would be great.
I’m curious about other simple and effective power sources that are out there for sf4. Every time I make a world I always run to geothermal power source because of this build I’ve perfected to fit into a small area and can be mass produced to create a giant power source.
Break down of the build: ⚫️The first chest(on the left) leads into a combustion generator fueled by blocks of charcoal.
🔵(Charcoal being the easiest accessible in early game since an abundance of wood = a fuel source/infinite charcoal glitch; cook wood to make charcoal, use charcoal as fuel source to cook more wood, and repeat)
⚫️Combustion generator fuels an auto user (auto user faces the cauldron that is sitting over a torch; auto user also has a cobblestone generator feeding it cobblestone stone)
⚫️Using fluid extraction cables, extraction lava from the cauldron to feed into the geothermal generator (geothermal generator can also later be upgraded to the upgradable geothermal generator for faster power production)
⚫️Geothermal generator feeds into energy transfer nodes allowing power to be fed to other machines via gps.
What other power sources are also simple to maintain while also being easy to build?
I'm trying to do some calculations around how much i'm generating to adjust to my consumption, but can't find any info on the mod's page nor here.
I can't find it in the config files neither and i don't really know other ways of looking into it. Does anyone have some numbers?
