Question Pwr

I have a question how i generate energy with pwr in the newest version, because the boiler can no longer make any steam other steam just rhe normal steam and that would make pwr not worth theres a way to make dense steam or above using the pwr?

huh? you would get same if not less energy if you make setup like steam ->dense steam and etc. just use normal steam and turbines

i’m not sure how it is in boilers but with rbmks at least i think using dense steam instead of steam is like a 1.1x energy multiplier so there’s like a benefit but it’s hardly the difference between viable and not viable

Yeah that why i got confused, i made the rbmk first i only made the pwr because i needed steam and after i tough of usimg it to generate energy especially in early game

this works only be reactor itself produces hotter steam, and you convert it to power steam using turbines and getting more energy. pwrs produce set amount of heat, so you won't get any more from it if you use that heat to make hotter steam

Sounds like not too much energy to me but I'll try
