How to get Applied Superconductivity

Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 15) and its weight modifiers. Tier 5 opens after 6 tier 4 technologies of the same area.

Applied Superconductivity: questions

How do I get Applied Superconductivity in Stellaris?

Research Quantum Energy States first (3 technologies in the whole chain); then Applied Superconductivity can be drawn as one of the 3 physics research options.

What does Applied Superconductivity do?

It gives +5% Energy Credits Energy Credits from Jobs.

What is the ID of Applied Superconductivity?

The technology's ID is tech_repeatable_improved_tile_energy_output. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_repeatable_improved_tile_energy_output (Stellaris 4.5.2).

How much does Applied Superconductivity cost?

50,000 physics research before modifiers, +5,000 per level. In game the cost grows with empire size (+0.2% per point above the base, common/defines) and the galaxy's tech cost setting.
