It would be nice to include Fuel Cells into the game as late/mid game options.
1: Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) is a high temp power and heat generating device which can burn
most light hydrocarbons. It is known to be 60% efficient at generating electricity with Methane (CH4). I think this would be a good mid game power and low-steam generator to replace the early game diesel generator. https://www.bosch.com/research/know-how/success-stories/high-temperature-fuel-cell-systems/
2: Late game you could have a Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) as an alternative waste treatment option. It is a device similar to the digestor but instead of making CH4, it makes power + CO2 + Organic Fertilizer. If Algae is added to the game, it could also be used for feedstock. Here is the research data on MFC's: https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/biochemistry-genetics-and-molecular-biology/microbial-fuel-cell
Thank you for your consideration!!

A hydrogen fuel cell building would also be nice, to generate electricity (and water) directly from Hydrogen.
