Currently uranium from IE has only 1 real use, as a passive heat source for Pneumaticraft or as a passive heat source for the Thermoeletric generator.

One thing that could make Uranium more useful, and turn it into an end game power source, is the addition of something like Extreme Reactors. Adding the mod would not affect currently existing worlds, as you can configure it to use Uranium as a direct replacement for Yellorium, and you can (and honestly should) disable Yellorium world gen as it would redundant.

I have already done an initial test for compatibility with IV 1.6 and so far there does not seem to be any issues. Recipes would need to be adjusted to be brought in line with the other recipes in the game. This could give us a use for lead in the game also, as currently it is only used in the creation of a very limited number of items. Lead could be used instead of Graphite for some recipes (like basic vs reinforced).

Oh wait it's the one mod we use in EL2 right?

#

I completely forgot

I think so

#

Sadly it's the only reactor mod I could find for 1.20.1

Nah don’t add nuclear craft

#

That would take a new tier past whatever the highest one is

blazing pilot
#

and I guess not the only one new tier but a couple

#

Def at least one new chapter

#

And nuclear craft is like really big iirc

#

I’ve been afraid to play a modpack with it tbh, too complicated for me

I'm not sure that would be a good idea for IV this late in release. Adding that now would require new world due to the added world gen (or require people to explore farther). On servers like the official one that means that the mod would be unusable as we wouldn't be able to get the new ores since the entire server is already generated.

The nice thing about Extreme Reactors is that it's fully compatible with the official server as it is right now. Uranium is a direct substitute for yellorium, meaning you can safely turn off ore spawning of yellorium.
