    The first oil company that took over the oil field was named LöPö. Löpö in finnish is a shorthand word for "lämmitysöljy ja polttoöljy" meaning "heating oil and fuel oil".

    In the electrical world, the big towers are "transmission", and the small ones are "distribution". Transmission connects directly to the generation plants and takes it long distances to those big transformer stations, or "substations". Those places reduce the voltage and "distribute" it to the local customers. If you have electric poles in front of your house, those cylinders are another set of transformers which reduce the voltage again to standard household levels. (Underground distribution typically uses small above-ground transformer boxes about 3-4' long on either side. For each customer. Fancy neighborhoods like them to reduce the visual impact.) Underground installations are often multiple times as expensive to install. (Earthworks.)
    Transmission is usually in the hundreds of kV, or 100,000+ volts.
    Distribution in my area is usually 12-34.5kV, or up to 34,500 volts.
    Home electric is 120/240 volts. Most home electric is 120 but appliances and HVAC usually use 240. (US.)

      Not necessarily. In England and Wales, you used to have sub-transmission towers during the CEGB days, and some oldies still call it so. It is 132kV. But, it's distribution. So, the smaller towers/ pylons are distribution, and the monsters are transmission. You can tell the voltage level by the number of insulators if you're unsure!

I know UK and Europe operate things at 220v and 50Hz rather than the 120v/60Hz of US so I would assume the entire grid is modulated accordingly... 🙃

    To formally answer the question metals and oil do run out. It takes forever, but yes they slowly produce less and less over time. There is a tab in the natural resources tab that shows the rate.
    Though to counter it there is an building that raises the amount of oil you can find in deposits :)

      in CS2 you cant specify, instead its controlled by whats most profitable to produce/use, e.g. if your city had a heavy surplus of wheat, wheat would be cheap, and so a lot of industries that use wheat would arrive, in theory, although the economy simulation is in a rough state currently due to glitches.
