As you will see in https://wiki.factorio.com/Prototype/Reactor the reactor prototype has one EnergySource and one HeatBuffer.

The EnergySource does not have any option beyond efficiency applied to all fuels: https://wiki.factorio.com/Types/EnergyS ... ffectivity
The HeatBuffer has only one specification for power capacity and transfer: https://wiki.factorio.com/Types/HeatBuf ... properties

So, no, it is not possible. Your only choice would be to replace the reactor entity dynamically when the fuel inserted in it changed. This poses the obvious problems.

Yeah, thought so. For now I will make 2 separate entities, each using different fuel. 1 craftable from materials, and both craftable from each other. Thank you for your help :)
