Quick summary

Burner devices are devices that burn Fuel to operate instead of relying on Electricity.

Burner devices are typically used early in the game before an Electric system has been constructed. They can also be used later in the game in remote locations where electrical power would be difficult to set up. Vehicles are necessarily all burner devices.

Burner devices tend to be significant sources of Pollution.

Note that this list does not include anything that consumes Fuel as an ingredient to build other items. For example, a Plastic factory consumes Coal, but it does not count as a burner device.
