As electric furnaces consume a substantial amount of power, [[Module#Efficiency Module|Efficiency modules]] are a good option.

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.
