[[Human]]s use generators of varying kind to generate electricity. Some generators, like the [[PG000E Portable Electricity Generator]], burn [[hydrogen]].<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level, ''[[Cairo Station]]''</ref> [[Nuclear fission]] and [[Nuclear fusion|fusion]] [[Fusion reactor|power]], as well as hydroelectric power plants and [[wind turbine]]s, are also common forms of power generation. | [[Human]]s use generators of varying kind to generate electricity.

The [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] use generators of varying kind to power their structures, including ''[[High Charity]]''. The most common power source is [[Pinch fusion reactor|pinch fusion]], a more advanced form of the fusion reactors employed by humanity. Smaller Covenant generators expand upon a single [[plasma battery]] to multiply its yield, which is transferred and stored in Covenant barrels that are attached to the base. These barrels have seen unattached to the generating bases which are probably transported and used to fuel Covenant vehicles. | The [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] use generators of varying kind to power their structures, including ''[[High Charity]]''.

It is likely that the fuel that the device generates into the detachable and replaceable tops might be plasma-based. This means that they could be used to fuel the systems on Covenant vehicles, such as their weapons, fuel, etc. | ||
