Looking for mega power plant capacity

Because I use the cheat fightthepower, and for the sake of aesthetics plop down a couple of power plants in the region, then my cities do not properly light up in the night. Is there any mod which say massively increases the power plant capacity or a very small innocuous building/ploppable which provides a ridiculous amount of power?


Dear sir/madam/whoever will read this!

This profile is now defunct.

Computer problems and issues with accessing my Imageshack account meant My SC4 CJ Scrapbook was lost and utterly irretrievable. This setback put me off SC4 for many months.

Apologies for the inconvenience and for the lost pictures.

But that SC4 itch did not go away and it had to be scratched! I have started afresh with a new account here- The British Sausage

With this update this will be the last time I visit my original Simtropolis account- admin/mods feel free to remove it or do whatever you need to do. I have no further use for the Ln X (BLANKBLANK) account.

I use somy microwave power plant also.  It can practically power a whole region.  Just be sure to put a fire station by it.

Eh? Why! Paeng's Nuclear Power Plant is way better. Just saying. Hahaha. 

 

Somy has a nuclear power plant too, its color blue if I am not mistaken.

I do believe the SFBT Nuclear plants have quite a large capacity (80k and 160k kWh I think). Or, I am pretty sure you can easily edit the values with the Reader.

There are a lot of good power plants around.  I use my own, which uses both water and air pollution as fuel as well as lots of water.

 

Radius of action: One large tile.

 

Needed for fuel.  Also copious water in general.

 

Both of these have been around a long time.

I have used the Black Hole Power/Water/Incinerator series (by Gshmails?) to good effect. They'll blend in with your industrial areas (well, V2 will at least) and provide ridiculous (though not unlimited) amounts of power for very low prices. I consider nightlights something worth having so I've always used powerplants in my cities, even though they occasionally look out of place. I'll need to download some fresh ones and modify them heavily. I'm usually worried about finding them again in the midst of redevelopment, but there are some power trees and such on SimPeg and the LEX (1x1 plops) that you could easily modify to 100 000 MWh. They blend nicely with parks and open areas as well.

    Thanks for all the download links and suggestions. I think what I'm going to do is use the SC4 reader and modify one of the DESC files to increase the power output.
