Is there a way to increase the power of my ships?

[PlasmaHanDoku]

I am looking at the enemy faction and they have a lot of anti-armor base ships. I'm trying to design my fleet to be more shield oriented but using 1 shield takes up so much power. Is there a way to increase the amount of shield my ships have or more power?

Aside from using a better reactor and reactor boosters(which suck), the only thing I can think of is to use lower tier weapons as they take up less power.

There should be a researchable module for the auxilliary slot called a "shield capacitor" (pretty sure that exists in vanilla) that increases your shields a bit, though I can't remember whether it's a percentage or a flat value. More power basically just boils down to researching a better reactor for your ships. Both techs can be found through Physics research.

The shield booster adds +10% and cost 20 power but it takes up an auxiliary slot.
