IndustrialCraft²'s basic Generator burns ordinary fuel (wood, charcoal, coal, some plants, scrap) and puts out energy at 10 EU per tick. It stores up to 4500 EU, and a piece of coal is worth 4000 EU in it.	`opening, "Usage" and Energy box (last modified 19 June 2012)`	Wiki
IndustrialCraft² kept IC1's energy units, cables, Generator, Macerator and electric furnace, all on the IC wiki by spring 2011 and all on its 2012 IC2 pages, and rebuilt how energy moves. Announcing IC², Alblaka wrote that a fellow modder was reworking the energy code; in 2018 the IC2 developer Chocohead described IC1's cables as whole blocks that ticked once a second, replaced in IC2 by smaller tiered cables. Tiered cables, packet sizes and transformers appear on the IC wiki's 2012 pages and in none of its 2011 revisions read here.	`"Usage"`	Wiki
IndustrialCraft²'s Generator turns burned fuel straight into energy, at 10 EU/t. Factorio splits the same job between two machines: a boiler burns fuel to make steam, and two steam engines turn one boiler's steam into electricity.	`Usage`	Wiki
