## What is EnergyLink?
EnergyLink is an energy storage supported by certain games that is shared across all worlds in a multiworld.
In Factorio, if enabled in the player settings, EnergyLink Bridge buildings can be crafted and placed, which allow
depositing excess energy and supplementing energy deficits, much like Accumulators.
Each placed EnergyLink Bridge provides 1 MW of throughput. The shared storage has unlimited capacity, but 25% of energy
is lost during depositing. The amount of energy currently in the shared storage is displayed in the Archipelago client.
It can also be queried by typing `/energy-link` in-game.
