r/feedthebeast on Reddit: Mekanism Power generation
June 16, 2019 -
Hello Reddit,
The last time i used mekanism was teh 1.7 days but i now have a question. How am i supposed to make good power with this mod. i remember the heat and gas-burning generators but i see they are removed. Anyone have a good info source for this?
Thanks

Get the mekanism generators mod first.
I usually go for an ethylene production setup with the gas burning generator. Carrots are the best crop for the bio fuel because they only produce 1 type of item, no seeds or poison variations to clog up the automation.
It produces a lot of power and isn't that hard to set up. You just crush any crop in a crusher to produce bio fuel, then combine bio fuel and hydrogen (from an electrolytic separator) in a PRC (Pressurized Reaction Chamber) to get ethylene (and substrate).
You can technically also burn hydrogen instead of ethylene, but it doesn't actually produce more power than it takes to get the hydrogen in the first place. Ethylene is a massive net gain on power.
The advanced solar panels are pretty strong too, but of course they only work during the day.

Mekanism Generators is your friend. And so are its Fusion Reactors and Industrial Turbines, in case you decide you feel like filling a max size Induction Matrix. Absurd power production

Question about mekanism power | Feed The Beast
So I'm looking to make a self sustained power system with mekanism if I can. Currently I'm experimenting with Hydrogen, but that seems to use the exact amount it creates. And even powering the separators with wind or solar energy is a waste because, if I'm using the same amount I'm producing, I may as well hook the wind and solar up to the energy cube instead. So it seems that the gas-burning generator ... More on forum.feed-the-beast.com

So i have been doing the mekanism mod playthrough and ive gotten the furthes i have ever with the giant automatic miner i made a mining system that extracts ore, enriches it, crushes it, and smelts it getting me 3x the metals but i have a issue. I dont have enough power. not even close to it. i have gotten a giant wind turbine setup with the best cables and best batteries, i still need more power. so what i made is a boiler and a steam engine but the only problem is. THEY BOTH COST ENERGY TO MAKE MORE ENERGY so im stuck trying to get more energy while making more energy. i need help pls

Gas burning will give you plenty of energy even in late game. You can make an auto farm of melon then slice it (you can use the mekanism saw machine or other method you prefer) and crush it into biofuel. From this point you can convert your biofuel into ethylene(look the steps into jei or YouTube ) to use into your gas burning generator.

My progression for Mekanism V10 is... 0) Redstone. You can insert Redstone Dust into Mekanism Machines to convert it into power. It's not a great solution, but it's enough to skip the rather poor Heat Generator. Heat Generator. Surround it by lava (do not put the lava in it to be consumed) for a small amount of free power. It's the only Mekanism Generator you can make without the Metallurgic Infuser (to make Alloys, Circuits, and Steel). Avoid putting fuel in it; it has some of the worst fuel efficiency I've ever seen, to the point that dumping redstone in the machines is probably the better option. Wind Generator. These things are pretty cheap and produce free power around the clock. They produce more power the higher up they are. They'll do a bit more than 60 RF/t near sea level, or a bit under 200 RF/t at the world limit. Ethylene in a Gas-Burning Generator. This is basically a refined version of Biofuel, and absurdly good as long as you can automate some form of plant growth/harvesting. There are ways to automate most vanilla crops but they tend to be huge builds for the scale you will want. Modded has more options, such as Botany Pots and Garden Cloches, but I'm not familiar with any Mekanism machine for better crop growing/harvesting. Ethylene is also needed for HDPE Sheets used in a few recipes. In v10, a single Gas-Burning Generator using Ethylene is probably in the 10-100 kRF/t range... and also happens to be the point where I think the mod just starts adding too many digits to its power gen numbers to really be taken seriously. Fission Reactor + Industrial Turbine. This is necessary to make Polonium Pellets used in several later-game things. This is a big build requiring complex fuel processing steps, hazardous waste to deal with, and significant consequences for screwing it up. I have no idea what power levels you can seriously expect from it, but it's absurd (probably into the millions of RF/t). Get bored and stop playing Mekanism :P. Power was already an 'ignorable' resource back with Ethylene. I've made 3 Fission Reactors so far for Polonium production, but this is the point where I consistently get bored with the mod. I haven't bothered making a Mekasuit yet. Anti-Matter doesn't actually seem that useful. The storage system (QIO?) looks interesting but is so late-game that it's way outclassed by the time you can get to it. N) Fusion Reactor: From my experience in V9 (where it was the only reactor), this is generator that produces multiple millions of RF/t from processed water.

Question about mekanism power | Feed The Beast
February 21, 2017 - Your best bet is to farm some crops, or setup a zombie farm, and turn em into biomass, and use it to create Ethylene and burn it in a gas burning generator. It's a slow burn meaning that it will last for awhile, getting you a pretty good deal on power if you're early game.
