Burner devices
Quick summary
Burner devices are devices that consume burnable fuels to operate instead of relying on Electricity. Some devices consume other types of fuels, and these devices are not considered "burner devices".
Most burner devices are used early in the game before an electric system has been constructed. Early power generation systems tend to be reliant on burner devices, but later-game power generators use different energy sources. Burner devices can also be used later in the game in remote locations where electrical power would be difficult to set up. Most vehicles are burner devices.
Burner devices tend to be significant sources of pollution.
In Space Age, burner devices cannot be placed on space platforms.
Fuel items can also be ingredients in crafting recipes. Devices which happen to be using such a recipe are not considered burner devices. For example, a chemical plant making plastic bars consumes coal, but chemical plants do not count as burner device.
