Induction Matrix
The Induction Matrix is a highly configurable multi-block energy storage structure. It is built using Induction Casing and Induction Port for the casing, and any combination of Air, Induction Providers and Induction Cells.

Creation Rules
A correctly formed Induction Matrix will spark once with Redstone Particles when you place down the last block, and will also have an interface when right-clicking the block. Note: To make the Induction Matrix function properly, you will want to have one Induction Port configured to input and one Induction Port to output, using a Configurator
Assembly rules:
- The Induction Matrix will only form if the cell structure is a rectangular prism 16x16x16 or smaller and the casing structure is a rectangular prism 18x18x18 or smaller.
- All edges of the block must be made using Induction Casing.
- All faces (other than edges) can be filled using Induction Casing, Induction Port, Reactor Glass or Structural Glass in any configuration (regardless of how the inside is set up).
- The inside of the cube can be filled with either Induction Providers, Induction Cells or air blocks. However, you need at least 1 Induction Cell and 1 Induction Provider. Without at least 1 Induction Provider, the Induction Matrix cannot send or receive power.
- The inside of the cube components do not need to have matching tiers.
Use
The Induction Matrix can hold a ludicrous amount of energy. It is best used as an endgame catch-all solution for a battery, especially when filling up capacity may be disastrous (for example, if a turbinie can not fill up or the player's Fission Reactor will melt down).
If the player can not obtain a big enough matrix (usually due to material constraints), or if their energy generation far outpaces the demand, it may be wise to invest in a few Resistive Heaters, which are able to burn off excess energy at a fairly high rate of 10 MFE/t.
