I was wondering if it would be possible to burn or use Alien Artifacts or Small Alien Artifacts as a fuel source in one of my buildings.

I don't think it's possible, but thought I'd ask.

I think you currently only have two sources of energy, Electricity or something with a burn/fuel value, like wood or coal. So I'd have to transform the Artifacts into something that has a burn/fuel value, but then the problem is that coal or would could also be used and I only want someone to use the Artifacts or a byproduct of the Artifacts.

Any thoughts?
Thanks.

My recommendation would be to check out the atomic power mod. I think the problem there is similar in that you have some kind of "fuel" which turns on the building.
