Discover all Industrial Modules in No Man's Sky, including power generators, switches, extractors, and storage. Learn their uses and crafting materials to build efficient bases.

The Industrial Modules in No Man's Sky are primarily used for constructing a base's power grid and for resource extraction. This section details all available modules, their functions, and the materials needed to build them.

Key industrial modules include three primary power generators: the Biofuel Reactor, Solar Panel, and Electromagnetic Generator. These are complemented by various switches (Auto Switch, Button, Floor Switch, Proximity Switch, Power Inverter, Wall Switch) and Electrical Wiring to control power distribution. For resource farming, the Gas Extractor and Mineral Extractor are essential, supported by the Supply Depot and Supply Pipe for efficient material handling and storage.

If you are looking for other types of base technology modules, please refer to our guides on Technology Modules, Transport Modules, Agricultural Modules, and Storage Unit Modules.
