Has anyone considered the possibility of an extremely expensive generator that requires no fuel to manufacture power? How about a Geo-Thermal generator? It would be extremely expensive for obvious reason, in fact to make it logical, you could reason it would require a sonic miner in it's crafting to "dig-down" a pipe or something into the ground to get it to work. The model for the machine itself would have to be rather large and bulky to compensate in it's "no fuel required ability" but at the same time to balance this out further, it could have a placement system like the locker some-what. Requires 1 minute after being placed to "dig it's pipe" to sufficient depth to begin generating power, then another 1 or 2 minutes to be picked-up to remove it's pipe and cool-down.
