Water is a liquid which can be infinitely extracted from lakes and oceans using an offshore pump. After being pumped out and distributed via pipes, water can be used to generate electricity by converting it to steam via boilers or heat exchangers. The specific heat of water is 200J / 1°C x unit. It takes 200 joules to heat one unit of water by one degree Celsius.

Raw fish can spawn in water, and can be collected by the player in amounts of 5, if they are standing close enough to the fish. Water can be removed completely by placing landfills over them, and will also remove any fish without collecting them.
