Power Grid: The New Power Plants – Set 1

About this expansion

Power Grid: The New Power Plants – Set 1 is a complete set of power plant cards for Power Grid, designed for 2–6 players and a 120-minute playing time.

Use this deck with any of the game’s maps. It can replace the original power plant deck entirely, or it can be combined with the original cards to create a more unpredictable mix.

The set also supports several ways to customize the power plant supply. You can add these cards to the original deck for a longer game that ends when 20 cities are reached, matching the length of Funkenschlag, or create a specialized deck by selecting a custom mixture from both sets.

• Use the new deck instead of the original power plant cards.
• Pair both decks for an unpredictable combination.
• Add the cards to the original deck for a game ending at 20 cities.
• Build a custom mixture to create a specialized deck.

Every card in this set has a green border, making the new power plants easy to distinguish from the original cards during setup and play. This visual difference is especially useful when combining the two decks or building a customized selection.

Power Grid: The New Power Plants – Set 1 was announced in April 2007 and released at Essen 2007. Official variant rules for using the new power plants with all released maps are available in the Files section.
