    A Power Plant must have Drive Potential (from the 
  Drive Potential Table) equal or greater than the Drive(s) it 
  supports. 
   Power Plant (shown for comparison). A Fusion 
  Power Generator with OverClock Capabilities.  
   Anti-Matter Power Plant. A Power Generator based 
  on Matter-AntiMatter interactions.  
   Collector. A Power Collector system which 
  accumulates stellar energy over time.  
   A Collector is half internal mechanism and half external 
  Canopy. 
   Fusion Installation (shown for comparison). An 
  industrial or community Fusion-based power source.  
   
  FUEL REQUIREMENTS 
   Drives require fuel to provide energy. 
   Power Plants and FusionPlants require Hydrogen, 
  stored under pressure and liquefied, fed from fuel tanks. 
   Power Plant. A Power Plant requires 1 ton of fuel 
  times Drive Potential per Hull Number (= tons / 100) per 
  week to support normal operations (that feeds about a 
  liter of liquid hydrogen per minute to the power plant per 
  Potential per 100 tons of Hull). 
   Anti-Matter Plant. An AM Plant is fuelled by Anti-
  Matter slugs contained by magnetic or gravitic fields. A 
  one-ton Console contains enough slugs to provide power 
  for a year. 
   Collector. A Collector gathers energy (It gathers 
  energy (a combination of photons and exotic particles) 
  radiated from stars and Gas Giants.

  OVERCLOCK 
   Standard P-Plant tonnage is based on Overclock= 100.
