A dev mentioned in the reddit fff thread that the sulfuric acid is turned into 500deg steam instead of directly into water, so that could probably be used with a turbine for power. Whether its worth it factoring in the materials used to turn acid to steam is a different story

Link would be nice :)

But otherwise, it may of course be that they still decide that the temperature of the planet is 500°C as well, and then the steam would be useless for generating power.

Good point, I completely forgot the power comes from a difference in temperature. Not sure what the link is anymore sadly
