King Lemming (forum name KingLemmingCoFH), opening post of the Thermal Expansion thread, posted 19 June 2012, announcing version 1.0.2 for Minecraft 1.2.5.
Notes
The thread later carried Thermal Expansion 2.x (see minecraftforum-te-2-1-6). This capture is the June 2012 post with the 1.0.2 download links and a changelog back to "1.0: Initial Release". It calls the release only the "Factory" module and says the mod needs BuildCraft or Forestry power (Minecraft Joules). Four of the thread's early replies show the mod's first audience.

Of IndustrialCraft, BuildCraft and Thermal Expansion, IndustrialCraft 1 has the earliest known power network: the IC wiki described its cables carrying a generator's current to machines by 11 April 2011. BuildCraft added its power system, Minecraft Joules, in 2.0.0 at the end of July 2011, by the account of its later developer asie, and Thermal Expansion's first release, in June 2012, needed power from BuildCraft or Forestry. Factorio's earliest date read here is its first demo, released on 31 December 2012; when its electric poles arrived isn't read here.#1, KingLemmingCoFH, changelogWiki
