Yes. When inactive, they have a low energy consumption and low pollution value. (Stone and steel furnaces i believe not)

edit: this is the code where you can see it: (taken from base assembling machine 1)

Code: Select all

energy_source =
    {
      type = "electric",
      input_priority = "secondary",
      emissions = 0.05 / 1.5
The first number after emissions(emissions is pollution) is the pollution value when not active. (but also the % how many energy is used when inactive)
the second number is the emissions when active. (energy usage is then not calculated from emissions)
