How to Get Started with Powah: Your First Power Setup

Gather the Basics

Powah revolves around generating, storing, and moving energy. Start by crafting a Dielectric Paste, which is a core ingredient in most Powah recipes. You will also need basic materials like iron, redstone, and gold. Your first real goal is a Furnator — a simple solid-fuel generator that burns coal or other burnables to produce power.

Build Your First Generator

Craft a Furnator and place it down. Right-click it to open its interface and insert fuel. It will begin generating energy, which you can see in its internal buffer. To actually use that energy, you need somewhere for it to go.

Add Storage and Transfer

Craft an Energy Cell to store power, and connect it to your Furnator using Energy Cables. Cables come in different tiers — lower tiers move less energy per tick, so match your cable tier to your generator output. Place the Energy Cell next to the cable, and it will begin charging. You can then attach machines or chargers to draw from the cell.

Upgrade When Ready

Once your Furnator is running, look into the Magmator (lava-powered) or Thermo Generator (heat-based) for stronger output. Each generator has upgrade tiers that increase its capacity and generation rate. Use the Wrench to rotate blocks and manage cable connections.
