Electrical Generation can be utilized via the "Discharge" ability to release all of the creatures stored charge at once, dealing {{Heart}}{{dice tooltip|1d4}} [[Damage Type#Electrical|electrical damage]] for each 1000 units of charge expended. Additionally, the electricity will randomly arc to adjacent creatures around the target, with each 1000 charge expended allowing for 1 additional arc. Each arc will reduce damage slightly.

Electrical Generation also provides the "Power devices", ability, which can be toggled on or off. It allows the creature to provide [[Energy|charge]] to artifacts and devices with onboard power systems, such as items with the [[jacked]] modification. Devices drawing power in this way will take from the creature's charge pool and will require the same amount of power as normal.

Devices drawing power in this way will take from the creature's charge pool and will require the same amount of power as normal. Power supplied by Electrical Generation can stack with the power supplied by a {{favilink|biodynamic power plant}} to provide power to jacked objects with a larger charge draw than either the could support alone.
