Thermal Expansion

Active Development: Minecraft 1.18.2
Thermal Expansion of Minecraft! A content-rich and server-friendly fusion of magic and technology!
For nearly a decade, the Thermal Series mods have been a fundamental part of modded gameplay. They pioneered gameplay innovations and optimizations that are now used in practically every modern mod. The Forge Energy system was built upon Redstone Flux, and many common features - side reconfiguration, advanced redstone control, input color coding - all originated from the Thermal Series.
The Thermal Series is a modular set of mods that allows players, server owners, and modpack creators to easily select the aspects they need and exclude unnecessary ones. This makes the mod versatile for various playstyles and worlds.
Collectively, the mods create a cohesive experience that significantly expands the Minecraft universe in a lore-friendly manner (though with a technological focus).
This module contains "Expansion" - the original mod in the series, dating back to Minecraft 1.2.5. It serves as the "industrial foundation" of the series, providing capabilities for energy generation, storage, and resource processing!
The mods continue to receive regular updates, and the series is not yet complete! We're working on it and appreciate your patience. Nevertheless, there is A LOT of content here for both newcomers and veterans. We hope you enjoy the new Thermal Series.
