All Solar Power Plant upgrade component locations in Pragmata

In Pragmata, the Solar Power Plant has the first batch of upgrade components you can find in the game. These collectibles are crucial since you must spend them to upgrade your weapon, hacking ability, and armor. As the first region in the Cradle you can actively explore, there aren’t many secrets to uncover or hidden passages to find — but that doesn’t mean every component is easy to find.

To help you find them and be prepared for upcoming challenges, we put together this guide showing the locations of the Solar Power Plant upgrades in Pragmata.

Again, take the elevator and, this time, cross over to the higher platform. Climb the orange pipes and follow the trail of lumen to the right. On the platform where there’s a terminal to unlock, get near the wall on the far side (close to two large yellow pipes) and look down.

Use the elevator again, cross to the other platform and, instead of following the orange tubes, head left and jump down. Enter the room to your left, where you must kill some enemies. Clear the enemies, then unlock the door. Exit using the door on the side opposite from where you entered and look to your right to find the component.

#07 – Power Distribution Center (Sealed Sector Gate)

Nearest station: Sealed Sector Gate

This upgrade component is on a platform on the right side of the main corridor with lasers. To reach this, you can use the lower-level elevator on the left side and cross to the other using the platforms over the main corridor. Because the upgrade component is too high, you need to raise the platform in front of it by hacking the terminal on the opposite wall.

#08 – Power Distribution Center (Sealed Sector Gate)

Nearest station: Sealed Sector Gate

You will find this upgrade component behind the locked gate in the main corridor. After finding and unlocking the five locks, go back to the main corridor and open the gate to find the component on the left side.

Take the elevator before the large circular room with a pillar in the middle. Look to your left to find an opening and the upgrade component.

You can only obtain this upgrade component after having progressed in the main quest and completed part of the Mass Production Array sector, where you unlock the ability to remove filament clusters.

Once you have this ability, come back to the first sector and take the lower-level elevator on the left side of the main corridor to reach the upper floor. Outside the elevator, turn left and jump over the handrail. You will land in front of a corridor blocked by lumen clusters. Remove them to access a new room.
