The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The theoretical maximum energy output of a given installation is defined as its continuous operation at full nameplate capacity over the relevant period.
- The capacity factor can be calculated for any electricity producing installation, such as a fuel-consuming power plant or one using renewable energy, such as wind, the sun or hydro-electric installations.
- The average capacity factor can also be defined for any class of such installations and can be used to compare different types of electricity production.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Capacity factor article was read about 40,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 70 and blocks with 63: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
How to get Capacity factor
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
