Power Cells are not necessary for your survival, but you will need one if you want to unlock pre-made vehicle recipes.

How to craft Power Cells

To make Power Cells you need 50x Biomass and 6x Glass. Furthermore, you will need to have built a Compost Bin, and a Metal Smelter, and upgraded your Bench to level 2 to obtain all the tools you need. Once you have built these, you will need to make 50 Biomass and 6 glass, then use the crafting bench to create Power Cells. The recipe for unlocking Power Cells will automatically unlock once you create your first Compost Bin.

Biomass is produced by putting meat or food into the Compost Bin. The result of this will be Biomass. Since you can use anything, such as Raspberries or normal meat, you have plenty of ways to gather these items to transform into Biomass.

Once you’ve got your 50 Biomass and 6 glass, simply make your way over to your Crafting Bench. Interact with it and select the Torch icon at the top of the menu. Select the ‘Power Cell’ recipe, and hit craft, and it only a few seconds you’ll have your very own Power Cell.

Since Power Cells are so important for vehicles, you will want to have an excess of them so your vehicle doesn’t break down in the middle of nowhere.
