Summary

The Satellite Substation has a very wide area of supply, and very long linkage ranges. It does not, however, provide wireless power to the player's mecha - only the Wireless Power Tower can do that.

Player Tips & Tricks

- While Satellite Substations have a long connection length, their idle consumption is 4x that of Wireless Power Towers, and therefore are ill-suited for distance chains unless the power grid already has plenty of energy to spare. As such, they are best reserved for factory setups with plenty of space, whereas Tesla Towers can connect the grids together with much less power consumption.
