Arcerion's power grid is connected via large hydro towers and transmission lines to several other Cronan countries. It is considered to have the best energy security in Crona as of 2020, and provided the vast majority of the electricity for [[Washakara]], the [[New Archduchy]], and [[Telokona]]. | Arcerion's power grid is connected via large hydro towers and transmission lines to several other Cronan countries.

During the [[Occidental Cold War]] and the 20th century, Arcerion's energy consumption almost entirely came from coal-fired power plants. With the discovery in 1977 of vast reserves of natural gas and oil in the Albion Sea, Arcerion announced exploration and drilling operations, expanding its de facto exclusive economic zone in Howland Governorate by dozens of kilometers and increasing its [[Royal Arcerion Naval Service|naval presence]] to defend Arcer liquid gas interests. By 2000, natural gas and oil imports to Arcerion, in addition to new technologies in the coal industry and advanced deep-mining operations in Moorden resulted in Arcerion becoming energy self-sufficient. | During the [[Occidental Cold War]] and the 20th century, Arcerion's energy consumption almost entirely came from coal-fired power plants.
