 After the cutscene, go up the platform to the left and shoot at the bins blocking another hole. Go through this hole in Morph Ball form to reach Volt Forge. |
Locate the Generator

 After reaching Volt Forge, keep going onwards until you find a room with a terminal by a window. You can find a save point on the right side of the room. Afterward, scan the terminal to get the Area Map. |

 Hop on the Platforms to Reach the Bottom.From the elevator, keep going onwards until you find a platform. Keep hopping from one platform to another until you reach the bottom floor. |

 Upon reaching the bottom floor, position yourself on the platform near the ledge on the right. Use the Control Beam to aim this directly to the trigger. All platforms will be raised, but take note that this is timed and they will drop momentarily. |

 Follow the tube going all the way to generator in Morph Ball form. Go around behind the generator and hit on the trigger prompt. This will activate the generator and turn all signals online. |
Return to Top Floor
| Objectives | |
|---|---|
| 1 |
 Due to the power restoration, the generator will be emitting damaging shockwaves on the tube. Be on the lookout for this by keeping out of its direction as you return to the dark room from earlier. |
| 2 |
 The lights in the room will be back on once you go back. Look for the component printer terminal next to the big structure in the middle of the room to activate this. |
| 3 |
 Look for the second Component Printer with the tire hologram and position yourself on it. The Component Printer will register your identical shape to a tire and place you in the narrow passageway above it. |

 At the end of the hallway, more robotic spider enemies can be found. Defeat them before activating the Security Shutter Terminal. Scan this first before the Interact prompt pops up. |

Keep Going Until You Find the Generator Outside. From the elevator, keep going onwards until you find another hole that you can sneak into in Morph Ball Mode. After passing through the area in the platformer viewpoint, you will reach the generator outside of the tower. |
| 6 |
Hit the Triggers Beside the Generator. Like the previous generator, there are two triggers on both sides of the generator.
