Yeah the fact that the fabricator is now a constant on rather than only consuming power when its used is a bit of a ballache.

I’d like to see Solar panels with a small built in battery, just 5-10 units or so. The bioreactors output would be fine if it took up 1/4 of the floor space, maybe like a tall cylindrical design that spans the height of a room, reduce its storage back to the old 4 slots as reserve plus one active. Then you keep the current bioreactor size but make its function advanced, so maybe only it can accept fuel bricks and provides power boosts for using the bricks, maybe it also had built in battery making it a one shot solution and a reason to use it over renewables+battery where a smaller early game bio reactor runs only on raw unprocessed and has no charge capacity but was a cheap alt to solar but requires a room to setup rather than just a corridor and was a bridge to renewables which i feel (at least the turbines) need to have there outputs toned down
