Vis Electra is a military power station in Just Cause 3.
Description[]
According to the in-game map: "A 600 year-old vineyard was flattened, and the military power plant of Vis Electra was built in two months by prison labor. To this day, nobody knows where its power goes, or how many political prisoners are entombed within its foundations."
According to Rico after Time For An Upgrade, he will destroy the base in a day compared to the base being built in two months. Unlike most other military bases, this base only has one SAM. This is strange, because realistically there would be at least 3 SAMs for most bases.
The large columns of this turbines make the base look similar to Vigilator Nord.

Before knowing about the use of prisoners during its construction, Rico estimated that the construction must have taken 3 to 4 months. In reality, a base of this size would've probably taken at least half a year.
There are two female soldiers here that wield one CS Wraith 225R each.

This base is located in the province of Baia, near Mario's grandmother's house.

Trivia[]
- Vis Electra is one of six settlements and the first military base Rico has to liberate to progress the game. The five other settlements are: the 3 regional central command bases (Cima Leon: Centcom, Corda Dracon: Centcom and Falco Maxime: Centcom), Manaea and Guardia Alpha. However, the story would make little sense if only these locations would be taken over.
- It plays a very significant role in the plotline for the mission The Secret of Vis Electra, as the base (apparently) powers the FOW at Cima Leon: Centcom.
- Its role as a power plant is shared only with Alte Potentia. As a matter of fact, these two bases are the only bases where turbines can be found.
- During liberation, the military announcer says on the radio, "Men, pile out and fire!" and a CS Baltdjur arrives. Rico comments: "It's like a camouflaged clown car."
- There is a random encounter that starts at the lighthouse here after this settlement is liberated and ends here, unlocking a beacon/flare resupply point.
- If you are liberating this settlement for the first time and get near the turbines, Rico will say "Turbines locked behind blast doors!!"
- Di Ravello considers the loss of Vis Electra "a failure that must not go unpunished." So much that the assumed Commandante of this base shoots himself in the opening cut-scene of A Terrible Reaction.
- "Vis Electra" means "power electrified" in Latin.
