Electric furnaces provide 2 module slots which make them more flexible for special purposes. The use of [[Electric network|electrical power]] makes them independent from a direct power source, but the huge heating devices take some extra space, which makes the electric furnace slightly bigger than the burner furnaces.

Due to rather big energy cost of using electric furnaces, it is a great idea to insert [[Module|Effectivity Modules]] into them. This is often more cost-efficient than providing all that power with [[Solar panel]]s.

The electric furnace is the third and last tier of furnace. As its name implies, it uses electricity rather than fuel to operate, removing the need for a fuel belt.

The electric furnace smelts items at the same speed as a steel furnace, and also has two slots for modules. However, it is slightly larger than the other two tiers of furnaces; it occupies a 3×3 area instead of a 2×2 area.

Quality's effect on output

Quality (from the Space Age expansion) does not affect coal or power consumption for furnaces, but does affect how quickly they process things. This stacks multiplicatively with Speed modules.
