Fueling a POS


To keep a POS up and runnign you need to provide it with various fuels that are supplied by NPCs in known space.

The fixed amount of the following items are required per day/ week/ month:

Enriched uranium
Helium isotopes
Robotics
Collant
Mechanical parts
Oxygen

The amount of these items required depends on the CPU and Power requirements of what you run at the POS:

Liquid ozone (power)
Heavy water (CPU)

Then a last item, Strontium Clathrade, is required to fuel the POS when it is put into reinforced mode, this happens when it is attacked.

The amount of the various items can be calculated at the following useful place:

It also shows you how much volume yuo will need to haul on a weekly basis - looks like an IttyV will do the job each week, also looks like the corp/I will need to find about 21m per week to keep it operational.
