	Factories, Coal Plants, Solar Plants, Hydro Plants Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

Do Solar Plants neutralize the effect of Coal Plants, meaning are they redundant?

What about Hydro Plants? Is there any point in creating a Solar Plant if you already have a Hydro Plant?

With the Hoover Dam Great Wonder, do you need to have a factory in your city before you get its benefits?

Thanks for all your help!

All Power Plants are redundant. You can have more than one in a city if you want, but only one will have an effect.

Hydro Plants are basically inexpensive Solar Plants, so no, don't bother with a Solar Plant if you have a Hydro Plant.

Yes, you do need a factory to get the benefits of any power plant, including free Hydro Plants from the Hoover Dam.

They replace each other. Yuo can't have more than one. Building a new will cause an old to be sold, unless given by a woner in which case you also may build another that overides the one given by the wonder.
