>If scaling up is an issue
No, 15 levels of infrastructure is an issue. Back of the napkin calculations tell me you can use the byproducts of tar, natural gas and oil seeps to balance them all together. It is literally insane and need to look into this deeper.

Power in pyanodon is infinite and I don't understand how people don't take it for granted. Like, this tar extractor has been sped up by a factor of 32 thousand with a row of beacons (because that's the limit for factorio apparently?) and it's shitting out 2.5 million tar a minute. Thing is, I checked the before and after running it for 10 minutes straight at this speed, which taking into account the x32000 speed boots is around hmmm
5 thousand hours real time and you know how much it got depleted?

The reservoir went from 33 278 808 to 33 082 621
It literally used 250 K units out of 33 million
in 5 thousand hours
YOU COULD BURN TAR NEAT FOR THOUSANDS OF HOURS
AND YOU STILL WOULDN'T MAKE A DENT INTO THIS SHIT

and you know how you make infinite gasoline?
tar

you make infinite gasoline from tar because you crack anthracene and you get gasoline and coke, coke which you can void into more tar and I FEEL LIKE I'M TAKING CRAZY PILLS

THIS TRIVIALIZES EVERYTHING
WHY ISN'T EVERYONE USING THIS
