Increasing your factory's base power output in Arknights: Endfield becomes a necessity as the number of facilities and production lines grow. Expanding your factory and building new machines is the natural flow in the game, but you can't simply place the machines without considering the logistics of a factory. Most machines require energy to work, and the Automation Core alone can't supply enough, which means you need a better source of energy.
Below, learn how to increase base power output in Arknights: Endfield and have enough energy in your factory.
To increase the power output in your factory above the base 200 energy points, you need a Thermal Bank. This facility uses originium ores or batteries to produce energy, increasing the total power output of your factory depending on the source of energy. It's important to keep in mind that you can't increase the base power output, but complement it using Thermal Banks.
Before you can build a Thermal Bank, you must first obtain its recipe by unlocking the "Power 1" node in the AIC Factory Plan menu. This node is located in the Basic AIC 2 level, which becomes accessible by using the Basic Expansion Core, given to you by the end of the main quest "Paving the Way." Once you unlock this node, you can build a Thermal Bank which requires 10 origocrusts and 10 amethyst parts.
You must feed a Thermal Bank with either originium ores or LC valley batteries for it to work and produce energy. If it's not receiving one of the two energy sources, a Thermal Bank stops working and the factory's total power output goes back to its base value.
The quantity of energy points a Thermal Bank produces depends on the power source you are using. By feeding it with originium ores, the facility only adds 50 energy points to the grid. However, if you use batteries, it produces 220 extra energy points, more than double the base power output.
You can build batteries using the Packaging Unit, a facility available once you unlock the "Packaging Tech" node in the Basic AIC 2 level. You need five amethyst parts and 10 units of originium powder to build one LC valley battery.
