The Ore Warehouse allows you to keep larger amounts of ore on a planet. When the amount of ore on a planet exceeds your storage capacity, your mines will no longer produce ore. By upgrading the Ore Warehouse facility you can keep your mines producing even longer.

Note: There is no limit to how much ore you can have on a planet, but once the storage capacity of the Ore Warehouse is exceeded no more ore is produced by mining. Additional ore can be transported/deployed/raided/harvested and added to the ore already present, with no limits.

Costs and Capacities

The cost for storage tanks double with each level.

The formula for capacity is as follows:

Capacity = 50,000 * [(RoundUp(1.6Level))+1]

Table

Level Ore Cost Capacity Difference
Start N/A 100,000 N/A
1 2,000 150,000 50,000
2 4,000 200,000 50,000
3 8,000 300,000 100,000
4 16,000 400,000 100,000
5 32,000 600,000 200,000
6 64,000 900,000 300,000
7 128,000 1,400,000 500,000
8 256,000 2,200,000 800,000
9 512,000 3,500,000 1,300,000
10 1,024,000 5,500,000 2,000,000

There is no maximum level of storage tanks. Capacities and costs increase as per the formula above. Note that, while storage capacity grows exponentially (~60% per level), the cost of expending your warehouse doubles (100% per level); cost of expansion exceeds the increase in size at level 14, and exceeds overall capacity at level 18.
