-Each cell will hold 21 mj(5.8kwh)/kg at TL 10. If made to explode(-5 electrician or -5 demolitions) they have a REF of 5. (tl 11 is 42mj/kg tl 9:10mj/kg  tl 8 0.5 mj/kg)+Energy cells, typical capacities of the TL. Early TL might have as low as half and towards the end of TL the value might be up to double for advanced cells.

 Solar Panels:Solar panels convert light into electricity. They work in any environment where strong light (such as sunlight) is available. The primary development at ultra-tech TLs is in inexpensive production of thin-film solar cells that have increased efficiency. Solar Panels:Solar panels convert light into electricity.

-Solar Power Array (TL9): This semi-portable array of solar panels is a generator that provides external power. It takes a minute to deploy, and covers about 40 square meters. It provides 800 kwh in earth average sunlight/day. $10,000, 230 kg.  The size assumes an earthlike level of sunlight; multiply cost and weight by relative light levels for other environments.

 Fission Generators (TL9): Fission reactors produce power by splitting the nucleus of heavy fissionable elements such as uranium. The reactor and electric generator designs available at TL9 are much more compact and far less expensive than TL7-8 reactors. (They are still heavy, due to the shielding required.) A typical semi-portable system fits in a truck bed, and provides external power for five years before maintenance and  refueling (50% of cost). It produces up to 2.5 MW. $100,000, 450 kg.
