A ''Geothermal Generator'' works on the same basic principle as normal [[Generator]]s do.<br />
<br />
Geothermal generators use the heat of Lava to generate electricity. With the release of IC², the generators accept both [[Non-IC Items|Lava Buckets]] and [[Lava Cell|Lava Cells]]. The latter are stackable and thus require less maintenance, but cost Tin to produce.<br />
<br />
Note for those using Buildcraft: Currently the Geothermal Generator will not accept connections from Buildcraft's Waterproof Pipes, nor will it accept Lava if placed directly adjacent to a Buildcraft Pump.<br />

== Usage ==<br />
<br />
As with all Generators, the lava-based fuel of choice is inserted into the lower slot, and optionally an [[RE Battery]] in the upper slot. The Geothermal Generator will charge the battery or output power at a rate of 20 [[EU]]/t.<br />
<br />
A single Geothermal Generator can store 24 units of lava - thus, inserting a full stack of Lava Cells will instantly use up 24 of them and fill out the lava gauge.<br />
