The Coal Boiler is the first unlocked machine with the ability to create High Pressure Steam. It plays an important role in the Distillation of Crude Oil. Additionally it provides the first alternative Power Production method to the Diesel Generator: The High-Pressure Turbine, which uses Steam (High) to create mechanical energy, which can be converted to Electricity.

Later in the research tree additional recipes are unlocked which allow the use of Woodchips, Biomass, and Animal Feed as sustainable alternatives to Coal.

Recipes

Below are all the recipes, which this building is capable of producing. Note, that some of them may be locked behind Research, and not immediately available in your game.
